December 18


We played a review game for our Rights and Responsibilities unit which took most of the period. I also returned mark sheets for your Government poster project.

  • Rights and Responsibilities Unit Final is on Wednesday, December 20th
  • Rights and Responsibilities In-Class Position Paper is on Thursday, December 21st


For most of the class we watched "The Corporation". Both classes will finish viewing this film tomorrow. When we were watching this video today, there was a case study about Bechtel and the privatization of the water supply in Bolivia. There is an online article about these events which can be read here, which is called "Leasing the Rain". The more you read, the more you know. Enjoy.

Like always I don't ask questions that ask for specific dates, however it's good to know the order in which things happened chronologically.

No. Be more concerned with sections of the Charter.

A decent size salad bowl will allow me to give you a fine haircut.
