So, I officially assigned the policy paper essay today. It is due next Tuesday and can be about something other than Darfur - just get it cleared by me before you start researching & writing. Please take this assignment seriously. And NO "I" statements!
I asked for any missing work and reminded everyone to finish the three Darfur readings. We'll go over those things tomorrow, and I'll give you time to work on the packet I handed out today - you'll need to do some of the things as part of a group.
Please check the portal. Anything MISSING is probably too late to turn in. Anything with a BLANK has to be made up (test, video, etc.).
Lastly - do a litle bit of research for the Oceania test that will be combined with South America. I will NOT ask you WHERE those tiny islands are, but there will be some fact-matching. So, Thursday will be a test on South America and Oceania regions, plus some trivia regarding the more interesting islands in the Pacific.

ReplyDeleteJust the islands, yes...plus South America
ReplyDeleteThanks Romo for changing the weight of classwork vs. tests from 60:30 to 50:40. That makes a lot more sense.
ReplyDeleteHey Romo, can we use Wikipedia as a source for the essay?
ReplyDeleteBy the way it's nora.
ReplyDeleteUse ANY source...just verify its validity. If you read that Guam is an island comprised entirely of bat guano, you deserve to be mocked and ridiculed for earning your low grade.
ReplyDeleteRomo, this is megan. I was gone the day you assigned this. Is this a research paper? what kind of things are we suppose to research? I was assuming we state what America should do about the situation is darfur or anywhere else.. am i wrong? thanks.
ReplyDeleteoh heyy
