#4 Good Bye To a Decade

As the year ends, I thought it would be a good time to reflect and I found this article in Time magazine (link given below). Read the article then comment on what you read. After doing so, you will need to read some of your classmates' posts and comment on at least one of theirs. Keep in mind the grading criteria this time--Check your rubric carefully before you hit "post". Enjoy and of course---THINK.

#3 Photo Story Reflection

Now that we have finished our first embedded assessment, it is time for reflection. How did you find the experience of creating your photo story? Do you think you would ever do another one, perhaps for another class? What was the most difficult part of the process? What would you do differently? On a scale of 1-10, with 10 the highest, what would you give this assignment?

#2 Health Care

Having discussed various aspects of perspective, comment on how you see the current health plan being considered in congress. Be sure you know at least a little of what the bill proposes. Decide how you (not parents or friends) feel about it and why. Next year you will be a part of the real world so it will have an affect on you and possibly your pay check. (Be sure to check your spelling, punctuation, and capitalization---you are a senior and or don't want to come across as anything less.)

Why are you here?

What are your expectations for yourself and this class? How will getting a diploma help you with your future plans?
