A bit more cut & dry, but it hits all of the major points.
If you were absent on 10.28, please see me about making up the video we watched. We watched a video on brainpop.com that was about the Bill of Rights, and I can not post it on the blog.

New Unit: Citizenship
We have started a new unit in our class: citizenship. It is based around the "Citizenship Handbook" in our textbooks, but I am integrating current news into our instruction to make these topics relevant to the students.
Online resources:
Kid-friendly news: www.channelone.com
Textbook Online: **site to be updated**
Each student should have a calendar of the unit and a concept map that covers the key concepts. The summative for this unit will be Friday, November 7-- right after the elections!
