Welcome to a new Semester

We're starting the year off with a critical reading unit looking at the issue of poverty in America. We will be reading a variety of non-fiction texts and media.
We will also view some fiction pieces that have certain biases or elements of propaganda. Students will be asked to create a real to life project at the end of the unit.
Most of what we do in this unit will be online using netbooks, the computer lab, and Google Docs.
