Interviews With Your Elders!
Preliminary Questions are due Thursday, 1/31.  Rough Draft of completed interview is due Thursday, 2/7.
We will be turning these interviews into essays/biographical sketches. In your notebook!

• Interview someone who is at least 50 years older than you are.
  
• Ask five+ questions that require more than a sentence to answer. Try to draw information out of that person.
• Each question should be "followed up" with another question based on the previous answer.
• Write down answers to questions. (direct quotes, summaries, notes on attitude, etc.)
• Note the setting of the interview. (place, time, surroundings, what you're doing...)
• Describe the interviewee. (physical, voice, relationship to you, attitude, background, hobbies...)
• Skype/Facetime (or similar) is OK, but note the above two items and your time limit.
• If the person allows it, a picture or two would be great. (Bonus.)
