World History I - We watched CNN Student News today to catch up on news first. Then, students were given a writing prompt to address which dealt with the research they had done in the previous two days. Students were to compare the ways in which people lived around the world during the Middle Ages with the way that people lived in Europe during the Middle Ages. Students needed to have a three paragraph essay with at least 3 specific comparisons. If they did not finish it in class, it is homework. They will be turned in tomorrow.
Government - We started today by watching a piece of CNN Student News that covered the President's campaign strategy. We also watched the report on the debt issues of Italy, and how it will affect the European Union. Students heard about the specifications of the Presidential Limousine, appropriately called The Beast. We also watched a short video that gave a tour of Air Force One. Then we continued through section one of chapter eight by talking about Presidential Succession, and what should happen if there were to be a vacancy.
