Learning Target: We can craft a well-supported argument with strong evidence
Onto day 3 of our term paper work. Before I turn you loose today on term paper today. I'm going to show the video on this page of Paul Ryan explaining the direction he wants to take the Republican Party as the Speaker of the House. The back stage politics involved in Ryan's candidacy illuminates the fundamental dynamics of today's Republican Party. All of this is coming to a head today as the House votes on a budget deal negotiated by the current speaker and President Obama. There was a kerfuffle in the House Rules committee last night and now a threat of a filibuster in the Senate by presidential candidate Rand Paul. We'll talk about all of this for about 15 minutes and then you'll have the rest of the day to work on your term paper.
I'll be floating throughout the time, checking in, looking at your theses and evidence. I'll also be checking in with you about missing assignments and your specific jobs for the group project.
Homework due Thursday, October 29th
Keep working on your term paper and follow up on your group project assignments
