Today in Humamities, we read from the book, If the World Were a Village. We discussed how what we read had to do with our study of economics.
In groups, we made posters to share out what we had learned about our type of government on Monday and taught the class about our type of government. Students took notes and then we put these types of government on a spectrum of government control.
Then, we had a discussion about Europe's diversity and the advantages and disadvantages of living in a diverse community. Students were graded on their discussion participation. We'll use what we talked about in the discussion to begin our study of WWII tomorrow in class.
We assigned Current Events due dates. This unit's current events should be about Europe. Links for European current events are on the blog link to the right.
Orange and Blue tables: 1st current event due Monday, Sept. 28th. Extra Credit Discussion Leader: Emma.
Red and Yellow tables: 1st current event due Friday, Oct. 2nd. Extra Credit Discussion Leader: Jory
Homework: KWL chart: what do you know and what do you want to know about Europe? Start to work on Europe current events (due dates listed above).
