We will be watching 3-4 interviews in class, in addition to 1 by yourself. Please write a comment for each video you have watched. The comment should be about something you found interesting, something you learned, or advice you would give to another person.

For each program you pick, write a response about: 
1. How does the program relate to you 
2. What is the biggest advantage of the program 
3. Describe the impact the program has on Americans

We are going to be trying out a new lesson called Game of Quotes. You will have 15 minutes to read over an article talking about the relationship between the U.S. and China. After 15 minutes, I will be giving different prompts. Your goal is to find the best quote that fits the prompt. For full points for this activity, you will answer the questions about the article and write down your response for each prompt.

Sample Text: Here's a random paragraph from "The Devil in the White City":
"'What's it like?' Holmes asked, regarding the building with undisguised interest.
Burnham turned to face him. 'It's like nothing you've ever seen, I assure you. We're pushing the boundaries of architecture, of engineering. It's a city within a city.'
'And the people?' Holmes asked, his eyes scanning the crowds milling about the fairgrounds.
'The people?' Burnham echoed. 'They come from all walks of life, from every corner of the globe. The fair is a melting pot of humanity, a celebration of progress and innovation.'
Holmes nodded thoughtfully. 'Sounds like quite the spectacle.' He turned back to the imposing structure before them, a faint smile playing on his lips."

Sample Prompt: Something you wouldn't want to hear in the bathroom
It's like nothing you've ever seen, I assure you.

Extra credit is given if you complete the reading questions by our Sunday deadline.

Write at least a paragraph or multiple bullet points articulating what your vacation is, what you are doing, and what the associated prices are.
