Soundtrack: "Battlefield" by Jordin Sparks. Selected for today because the end of the year can feel like a series of battles. Keep working hard, everyone! Lyrics here.

News Brief: Lucas had the news brief today, but was not in class, so I filled in and selected an article about this story to talk about:
I also talked about this story, from a nearby high school:
Two very interesting and local articles, as we continue to look into state and local government!
The next news brief will be done by James.
We also checked in about what students were up to outside of class.
State/Local Project: We kept working on this project, which is a two page paper, with at least three MLA citations, about a local issue that you care about. Here's the handout:

Work Time/Grade Check: The rest of class was spent working on Chromebooks, researching for the State and Local project and writing about an issue that you care about in our local community as I checked in with students about grades. Next class, Seniors will be taking the final as the rest of class has work time again. Thanks for your hard work, everyone!
