Agenda:

Understanding Congress
Project Work Time

1. Journal 
What do you think is an important quality in an elected official?

2. CNN Ten 
Let's check out today's 10 minutes of news.

3. Understanding Congress 

• Yesterday, each table got a different lesson from the chapter of our book on Congress. 
• Today you are getting the SECOND lesson. 
• Your job is still to find ten facts for this next lesson.
• A different person should write the facts than yesterday.

4. Project Work Time 

• The rest of the class time is dedicated to your projects. 
• Make sure your Project Proposal Form is complete (I received some incomplete ones yesterday).
• Keep in mind - your full project is due next Monday, January 13th. Be prepared to present to the class.

Reminders: 
Check Powerschool. Grades should be up to date, including the two assignments you've submitted so far for the Congress Profile Project.
