Biomes!

Today we introduced biomes in class. Here is the Prezi presentation that I had on the board. Reminder: On Thursday, your debate analysis and powerpoint presentations are due. Please make sure you follow the guidelines for the powerpoint presentation that were handed out in class as you will be marked on it. Please feel free to e-mail me or Mr. Kamau with any questions or if you need any help outside of class! If you want to go the extra mile and try using Prezi instead of powerpoint- check out www.prezi.com to create an account!

DDT Debate- coming to class Thursday!

Here is the powerpoint I showed in class in case you missed any details. This is by far only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the DDT debate and I know there will be strong arguments for both sides. Please make sure your sources are reliable when doing your research and remember to come to class on Thursday with a one page statement exhibiting the stance your team is taking in the debate (this will be turned in and marked).
