New Unit: Hip Hop Goes Global
To help us get started, we're going to talk about what we know (or don't know) about Hip Hop.

Quick Write: 
In your English Journal, respond to the following prompt:

• What influences does hip hop have in our society and our world? 
• What is its message?
• Is it just music, or is it something more?

Respond to these questions with your own examples or observations from your experience.

Socrative:

Open SOCRATIVE and join with the room code we give you in class. 

Reminders: 

• If you were absent, be sure to finish the QuickWrite in your English Journal. 
• Pick out a great book for Book #6. 
• Finals start January 22nd! I will have a study guide for you later this week.
