Non-Mathematics Performance Tasks

These tasks were created by AAESA teachers in conjunction with the Linda Jordan Performance Tasks Series in 2013-14.  The tasks below are not directly math-related, but are excellent examples of performance tasks.  These tasks have not been juried or tested in any way at this time.  They are DRAFTS only.
