Gelinas Junior High School eighth graders in Kimberly Cameron’s classes have been enhancing their understanding of various technological, societal, scientific and business feats of progress beginning today and working backwards in time to the Industrial Revolution. How Obama is Invading Your Home By Ben Lieberman October 11, 2010 Originally published in The New York Post The Obama administration isn't satis fied giving the American public vast things we don't want — from stimu lus packages to bailouts to ObamaCare: It's a small-scale nuisance, too — witness its attempt to redesign home appliances. Good Morning from EHS! We are excited to work together on this project. It is very cool that we were asked to create a curriculum that each Edison 2nd grader will experience as part of their education. Drew- closing statement from me is that all people should have healthcare and nobody should be deprived of it, sure some people don't earn it but wat about people who need healthcare and cant get a job because of a social disability or anything along those linesCallie- At the beginning of this i didnt have a view on it.
[HOW DO YOU THINK THE SUPREME COURT RULED?] [WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ON THE CASE? EXPLAIN]
Student Immigration Movement: Ashli,
1. Please write a combined letter to Mr. MacLeod and to SIM proposing the creation of the SIM chapter at the O’Bryant (I agree to be the faculty advisor).
2. Please write a letter/email to faculty/guidance counselors stating that they can contact Jessica (I will give you her contact info; please mention that she is an O’B alumni) for resources for undocumented students who want to go to college.
3. Create a flyer about an info session meeting to recruit more students to join.
Civics Mr.o's Questions
Better Projects/Better Boston: Anngeron,1. Please create a powerpoint presentation about what you hope to achieve for your project and what were some of the questions that you wrote in your bilingual survey (did you give 10 yet?). Look up some statistics that you can use about who lives in Boston/Massachusetts/American projects.
Greater Boston Food Bank/Grow or Die:
Civics Mr.o's Vocabulary
1. Tobi/Joseph, do you have the letter from last week? Lets review it and email to the Greater Boston Food Bank.
2. As we are awaiting for a response, why don’t we begin a food drive to get this project rolling:
a) Select a timeline for collection
b) Write an email to the O’B staff with your proposal (it must include when you are going to collect the food and we can also print the letter and put on teachers mailboxes)
c) Create a poster (I can make copies)d) Email Mr. Munsey and ask him if we can get boxes for the food drive (who else can we ask for boxes)
Better Schools/Greater Student Voice:This might be the hardest project, given that we haven’t been able to find a partnership yet. REEP will help, but it would be better to find a group that actively works with students issues and advocacy.
1. Write a letter to Mr. MacLeod, asking for a meeting a put forth a platform (issues that you want to address in this meeting).
2. Research additional partnerships (not just REEP: Roxbury Empowerment Environment Project). I think some of you have contacts already; if this is the case email them and ask for a partnership. I need your research results and the letter by the end of class.
MSPCA/Animal Rights:
Review the 2 bills that you are supporting and the 1 bill that you are opposing and write a letter to your State Representative and State Senator with lots of details. You can certainly work together and please remember that some of you only have either a representative or a senator, but not both. This will allow you to be really informed about your bills and make a great first impression with the MSPCA and your local politicians.
P.S. Did all of you give me your permission slips.
THANKS EVERYONE!
