Civics-Focus-World

Civics:
Today we viewed the commercials. A good effort... It appears that you are beginning to grasp the issues. Keep your eyes and ears open because you are gaining very good information. We spent a little time debriefing the news assignment related to debate #2. I collected that assignment. You were give a number (1-6) and a note card. This evening, you are to go on the Internet a identify your proposal. (list the proposal, explain the meaning of the proposal). In class tomorrow, you will introduce the class to your proposal. Next up is a glogster for the proposals.
Focus: Final blog post and evaluation. Thank for a neat 6 weeks and for the input related to changes for the next 6 weeks. Meet in the classroom tomorrow for attendance, then a program in the Smith, followed by classroom mentoring.

World: Today we debriefed I, II of the spread of religion material. You also viewed a 30 minute segment on religion from Bridging World History. The segment applies to part A,B,C of the handout. Please complete for homework. The handout was posted on the website earlier in the week.  The Spread of Religion from Bridging World History can be found here: http://www.learner.org/vod/vod_window.html?pid=2150
