In order to create a more informed and educated citizenry

Goal: Understanding what the 2nd amendment is and how it impacts our lives.

Agenda: 
Read
Investigate
Write

Note: I can't teach "normal" curriculum today and pretend that 17 students just like you were not murdered yesterday in a school just like ours. We need to know more. We need to do more.

The 2nd Amendment to to Constitution of the United States says that:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Learn more:

  • These materials are provided via a district resource of pro/con issues.
  • Read more HERE.  (Note, you may have trouble accessing these resources from off campus because they are provided through a district resource. I'll share the password you need in a Google Classroom announcement.) 
  • Read something from "viewpoint 1" and something from "viewpoint 2"
  • The goal is to make yourself more informed about these issues.

Respond:
In your English Journal write about what you just read. Include the title of the articles you read and include your thoughts about the viewpoints you read.

Reminders: 
Read this weekend.
Return the card the counselors gave you yesterday. Get it signed.
Do something fun.
