Current Events

Hey everyone. I hope you all are having a great weekend! This is just a reminder that you have a current events assignment due on Tuesday. All you have to do is find a current event that is similar with a topic that we have discussed in class. For example, you may find a current event on a recent outbreak of swine flu (which you can make connections to the outbreak of the Black Death). The connection can be related to any topic we have discussed throughout the year.
Once you find your current event, you must write two paragraphs on the event. The first paragraph should be a summary of the news article. USE YOUR OWN WORDS TO MAKE THIS SUMMARY. The second paragraph should be how the news story connects to a topic we learned in class.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Have a great day!

~Mr. Mazur
