UNDERSTANDING:  Do this:

Take the projects we discussed in CORE class (or any others you run across) and research one in depth: Where it started, where it’s funding comes from and goes, exactly what it’s purpose is, etc. 

OPT: Watch the following documentary with the approval of your parents: http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/child-slavery-with-rageh-omaar/

Here is what the lady said who recommended it to me:

“Hi, we love watching documentaries and movies along with the subjects we are studying.  Here is one of my favorites on child slavery around the world.  http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/child-slavery-with-rageh-omaar/ I think he does a good job of teaching the difference between slavery and children working to help maintain the family.  I think he does a great job showing the different types of slavery in different countries.  Warning - there is a part here on child sexual slavery.  I watched this and discussed the documentary with my older children.  If feel it's good for them to know what life is like in other countries.  But I highly suggest you preview it first and see if you think if it fits your family standard and what you want to teach to your children.”

INTELLIGENCE: Do all the following:

-We will brainstorm their advantages and disadvantages in class.  From that, we will decide if we want to support one of those programs and organize a service event, or create something on our own.  Melinda Gilbert will be helping mentor this.

-Bring all your flash cards for our Geo-genius game!!! Bwa-ha-ha-ha!!!  Everything (factual) can be included that is researchable. (That’s for you, Sir Clancey J…use that brilliance to memorize something that will last!)
