What are we doing right now?

Open Monster to "Tuesday, July 14", page 221. Listen and follow along while we read.

Write a journal entry from Steve's perspective reflecting on his experiences in court during the section we read today.

Be sure to include comments on his experiences when he was testifying, as well as when Mr. Sawicki was testifying.

You should be speaking as Steve and describing what he's responding to and he how he felt in those moments.

Your response needs to be substantial (i.e. pretty long and detailed).

Presentation Project

In groups of 3, research one of the topic clusters to the right
You will deliver a 10-15 minute presentation to your peers, who will take notes
You will be graded based on:
- Quality of the slides
- Quality of the presentation skills
- Quality of the research
- Quality of the insights you make

J. Robert Oppenheimer, The Manhattan Project, The Bombing of Hiroshima & Nagasaki, Japanese Internment Camps
Hobbes' Theory of Human Nature, Locke's Theory of Human Nature, Rousseau's Social Contract Theory
Stanford Prison Experiment, Herd Mentality, Otherness

Sigmund Freud's Theory of the Id, Ego, Superego; Darwinism; Survival of the Fittest; Masculinity and Violence
Democracy, Dictatorship, Communism, National/American Exceptionalism
Nuclear Arms Race, Red Scare, McCarthyism, Cold War

Once you have your group of 3 AND the topic cluster you want, let me know.
I will cross out the topic cluster up here. Anything that is crossed out cannot be chosen by another group. (No duplicates.)
You should then begin collecting research and sources in a Google Doc on the following:
- What is it?
- When was it relevant/when did it occur?
- What additional context do we need to know about it?
- How do the topics within the cluster relate to each other?
- How does it relate to our unit’s text, Lord of the Flies?
