I don't know if any of my students are still checking the blog (I doubt it), but I want to wish all my kids and their families a wonderful summer!
Also, here is a fascinating article on space: http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/12/tech/innovation/warp-speed-spaceship/index.html?hpt=te_r1 Tomorrow morning, we will be doing a debate in class! Students will be split into two groups, FOR and AGAINST. The question is, 'should Canada sell its water?' I have asked students to prepare to argue for both sides of the debate. Why? In order to debate an issue, a person must understand both sides of the issue, even if they do not agree with it.
This is always a great activity, and I'm eagerly looking forward to it! :) Students are being asked to debate this difficult, yet highly important and relevant question, this week. I encourage them to share this conversation with you, at home. I have specifically worded the question using the word "sell," not trade, give, etc. I hope students will be able to begin to understand the moral implications in such a vital situation! |
