1.  Typing 15 minutes

2.  New Project

Wow!  We are starting a new unit of work today. 

The guiding question is: How can I help change the world? Our Area of Interaction is:  Environments.  We will try to answer the question:  How can technology influence the environment?    The product we will use Microsoft Word 2010 to create is a tri-fold pamphlet to raise awareness about an environment issue.

But before we go any further let's look at the videos.

Global Warming


Biodiversity and ecosystem losses - extinction of species


Deforestation


Water Shortages


Ocean Pollution
