Welcome back and I hope you had a restful break!

For the next week we will be working on our nine week’s project - Global Warming. We will begin the project by watching 2 videos on the subject. The first is a documentary entitled, An Inconvenient Truth. This documentary was written by Al Gore and gives a very good overview about Global Warming. The second is a trade movie, The Day After Tomorrow, and is a depiction of what Hollywood believes would happen if Global Warming occurs. Once we have watched both videos, we will be writing a paper in class in which you will argue your viewpoint about Global Warming. I will give you these guidelines next week and will post them here also. Your paper will be due on or before January 15th.

Upcoming:

1. Permission slips for The Day after Tomorrow are due by January 8th. No permission slip = no movie.

2. Binder Check papers due by January 8th also. I will give you this information on Friday.

3. Global Warming paper due January 15th. Information to be given to you on Monday.
