Again- same project. How do you get an A/B? make sure that you cite all of your sources! You need both internal, or in-text citations, and external, a.k.a. a work cited. Don't forget those and you should be fine. Our focus this week? MUSIC and WHY it is so important to us. What issues does your music talk about? Is it created a certain way? How/why does it influence us and is that a positive thing? Here is a wonderful interview on two musician's who are doing all of those things.

Dear Community Leaders,

I’m excited to let you know that Congresswoman Judy Chu is holding her annual Service Academy Day on Saturday October 3, 2015 at 10am in the Bidwell Forum at the Glendora Public Library (see attached flyer). This event is for high school students and their parents who are interested in attending one of the Military Service Academies, such as West Point or the Naval Academy. The Military Service Academies are among the highest ranked educational institutions in the world and have graduated notable figures in American history such as Presidents Jimmy Carter and Dwight Eisenhower, as well as Astronaut Alan Shepard.

We will have representatives from of each of the five Academies providing information on what they offer to students in terms of academics, life experiences and career opportunities. They will also be available to answer questions and give details on the requirements for attending these Universities. Please help us spread the word about this event by forwarding this information to anyone who might be interested in attending one of the Service Academies.  

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at any time. Thank you!

After our many talks about culture and heritage, after looking both at the world at large and our own individual world, it is time to turn to our class study the Greeks. Here is an introduction. Remember we are still looking for why we bother to study them still today? Why do they still speak to us and how do they give us a way to discuss our own views and problems? Class time: Choose partners and sign up for our next presentation ART. The first way, after oral traditions, that we began to tell our stories and show what they mean to us.  Documentary, study guide, discussion. Homework: make sure that you uploaded your family story. Work on your art presentation- due Thursday/Friday next week.

Come by the GYM at LUNCH and check out all the cool CLUBS at GHS! Clubs will help you find friends with your interests and learn new things for future careers! Come by and check it out! Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week!
