The view over Queenstown, New Zealand. This place was stunningly beautiful and reminded me of the good life that we have when we learn about the world! Photo taken on February 3, 2014.
Hello everyone,
I think we probably could have finished the activism project with one less day of work in class, but at least this way, your projects should be fantastic for Thursday! Here's what we did today.

SS.HS.KN.ALT.17: I can explain the process of change and continuity in a society, place or region.
SS.HS.KN.ALT.19: I can explain the role and impacts of social hierarchies.
SS.HS.CO.ALT.01: I can organize ideas in a logically sequenced manner and in a way that is appropriate to the content area.
Soundtrack: "Good Life" by OneRepublic. Selected because we are hoping to promote good lives for everyone through this project. Lyrics here.
AGENDA 4/9/14:
News Brief
Computer Lab Time
Finish Activism Projects
Homework: Have the activism project done and ready to show next class. Read the blog! Next news brief: Sarah R.
News Brief: The news brief today was brought in by Dhruv, who selected this story: CNN.com - 'Race is being looked at' as a possible motive in attack on driver in Detroit. A very timely article, considering our look at race in America and how civil rights have been influenced by it throughout time.
Computer Lab Time: This was the last time in class available to work on the activism project. We used the computers in N228 (after I mistakenly took us to the library to start) to try and find sources of information for it (remember that you need three total, cited in MLA format on a separate sheet of paper). Hopefully, everyone is feeling good about working on the elements of the project. There is poster paper and printer paper in the room, as well. Please come prepared for next class! You will be expected to share with others, no matter what state your poster or brochure is in.
Finish Activism Projects: I saw some really great examples during class today. I think this could be pretty great, if everyone keeps working hard on finishing it! Let me know if you need help!
See everyone on Friday, with your finished projects, please!
