Last Day of Semester - Class Recap

Congratulations, everyone! You are done with Government for this semester! Photo taken at Niagara Falls in 2010.

Dear class,

I really loved being your teacher this semester! You all were fantastic at working hard and keeping class an enjoyable place to come to in the morning. Thank you! Here's what happened in class today:

Learning Targets Addressed:

Knowledge LT 5: I can demonstrate an understanding of the principles, structures, and functions of different levels of U.S. government.

Soundtrack: "Thankful" by Kelly Clarkson. I always choose this song for the last soundtrack of a class I am teaching, because I remain so thankful for all of you! I read part of the lyrics at the start of class.

AGENDA 1/27/16:
News Brief – Lili
Divided States of America
Appreciation

Homework: Have a great rest of the year! Consider forecasting for Diversity and Social Justice next year! Say hi to me in the halls! :-)

News Brief: Lili had the news brief today and selected an article about President Trump's tweets regarding military service. Here's a recent story about that: CNN.com - Donald Trump, who never served in the military, goes after Senate veterans.

I hope that you are continuing to follow the news, especially with the upcoming votes for the presidential nomination this year!

Divided States of America: The rest of class was spent continuing to watch the recent documentary from Frontline/PBS. Here it is to watch if you wanted to see all the way until the end.

PBS.org - Frontline: Divided States of America

Appreciation: Thank you all so much for your hard work! See you around! Be informed and educated citizens! :-)
