Current Event Assignment
Please follow the directions below to present your current event. You are required to present one article to the class per quarter. Each current event must be between 1 and 3 minutes. Give us the basic information and be sure that you know where your Current event took place so that you can place a pushpin into the world map at the end of your presentation. You may use the class newspaper, the class copy of the National Geographic or a reputable internet source to find an article. Your article may pertain to the leadership or politics of the United States but must be focused on a country outside of the US. Please use the “World news” sections out of the newspapers or off of the internet. Wherever you choose your article, you must bring the copy of the article with you to class. Also, please turn in a written page (this may be typed or hand written) with the answers to the following questions. You will use this to present your article…
Who did this article happen to?
What happened to make this Worldwide news?
Where did this happen? (Remember, after you present this article you will stick a pin in the exact location of this story. If you don’t know where this is at, ask me before Thursday.)
When did this happen? (This event should have taken place sometime within 30 days of the day you present.)
How or why did this happen? (this could be multiple reasons and may require a little more research or digging..don’t just regurgitate facts…find out what it means.)
What significance does this article have to one or any of the following: this country, our community (around Rancho), our class, or you and your family?
