After our class today, we agreed that each student can decide how to create his/her representation.  This may be a hand drawing, a paint picture created on the computer, or a couple of slides on a Power Point.  The most important part of this respresentation is that it is STUDENT CREATED!!!  IT CANNOT BE JUST A GOOGLE IMAGE WITH A TITLE ADDED!
