Current Events...

For your CE assignment, you will need to have an article (not a tv program or video) but if you are looking for a way to get started, you can watch student news and get an idea...then look for an article on one of topics you saw. If you need a great sight for actual articles, check out the Current Event section in the links above (under Miss B's Fav Links)

Check your email....

If you are a student in my PM core class...PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL!

thanks

Travel Project Hints

1. WikiTravel is a great starting point for this project. http://wikitravel.org/en/Latin_America

2. If you run across a site that does not work, keep trying the link list until you find one that does!

3. Don't get frustrated! Sites will work one day and then be broken the next, don't get discouraged.

Latin America Project/Market Day/Tater Travel

The project that you will begin in class today goes by many names...at the very basic level it is a project on Latin America. In the past, the project was called Bryant Travel or Tater Travel and this year as we combine forces with Mr. Willing and Mrs. Rau the project will be called Market Day.

As we begin our research today, you will need the following:

1. Your country assignment
2. Country profile (aka research sheet #1)
3. Research sheet #2
4. A patient, positive, cooperative attitude: some links will be broken, some computers may be slow, some information may be hard to find but YOU WILL GET THIS DONE! You've had a lot of practice and you can and will create something very, very awesome.

1776

After our discussion today, I thought it would be a nice idea for you to review the following information...

from wikipedia: 

"In the United States, Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain."
