Understanding Congress
Project Work Time

1. Journal 
Why did you choose the Congress member you chose to do your project on?

2. CNN Ten 
Today's CNN 10 will continue to talk to us about global news, particularly an earthquake in Puerto Rico and a naval ship in Australia

3. Understanding Congress 

• Each table is getting a different lesson from the chapter of our book on Congress. 
• Your job is to comb through the lesson and come up with TEN major points. 
• One person at your table can write them down, but you all need to help come up with them.
• Your group will be able to use your facts on an upcoming test.

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).

Reminders: 
Don't fall behind! Check Powerschool to see if you have any low or missing grades that you'd like to make up.
