Current+Events

In order to practice our public speaking skills, while also learning about our country and the world around us, we will begin **Current Events**. Your task is to choose a recent, relevant news story. Then, you must present your story in front of the class. Be prepared to answer questions or lead a class discussion about your article. There is no right or wrong answer to these reactions, but you must make a **personal connection** to them. All boxes on the form must be filled out. For every item not filled in a point will be deducted (i.e. no date). Current events must have al least 4 sentences each for your summary and your reaction. One point will be deducted for each missing sentence. Current Events turned in late will receive 1/2 credit. Current Events turned in more than three (3) days late will receive no credit.
