World: We began the film Monsoon Wedding today. You received a film guide that you should be working on. We will continue with the film tomorrow. Remember, you will be asked to respond to a writing prompt with respect to the film, so think critically about the film and the concepts reflected.
Thursday, 1st hour only - Meet in Mrs. Maddalena's room, B-108. Thanks!
Civics: In class we continued with the electoral college material. At this point you should have an understanding of its origins and positions associated with reforms and support thereof. After our discussion, you were in the lab recapping your knowledge related to the underlying function of the electoral college. Be sure you complete the 9 tasks assigned on the handout. In additon, you should create a "T" chart of the arguments that call for support of the electoral college and those that call for reform of the electoral college. We will continue with our preparations tomorrow.
