Presentation transcript:

Current Events Select a newspaper article on a subject of local, state, national, or international concern. ***Avoid gossip about Hollywood celebrities or stories about random strange and gruesome acts.

Read the article you selected 2-3 times, and make sure that you have a good understanding of the material. Look up new terms, and find the locations of any cities, countries, or regions that are referenced in the article. Write a one-paragraph summary of the article. Write a one-paragraph analysis of the article. In this paragraph, focus on your opinions or reactions to the article. Why is this an important story? What might be some impacts of this? What, if anything, do you think should be done about this issue?
