Learning Targets Addressed:
I can communicate effectively both verbally and in writing.
I can apply understanding of ideas and concepts to a new context or problem.
I can demonstrate an understanding of the role of governments in current issues.
I can effectively conduct and apply research.
I can self-direct my learning.
Soundtrack: "A Change is Gonna Come" by Sam Cooke. Selected for today because it is a famous Civil Rights Movement song and also because we hope that you as students can help be the change you want to see! Lyrics here.

Check In: At the beginning of class, we asked students what they were up to outside of class over the weekend and if there was anything they wanted to share with everyone before we started with the day. Thanks for your participation, as always!
Celebration: To celebrate the work you did this semester (as well as Katelyn's birthday, of course), we asked students to bring food in if possible so we could enjoy a work time together. Thanks to everyone for all of your work this year, and especially to students who brought food in!
Final Project/Work Time: The rest of class was devoted to work time on your final project, which will be due to be presented next class, on Monday, during our finals period. As a reminder, here is the final assignment, which you will need to turn in during class:
Please continue working on this outside of class and let us know if we can help clarify anything! Be ready to present your findings during our finals period together on Monday!
