Requirements for the slides and presentation:
-The Keynote presentation is independently assembled on all computers.
-Each slide only has one sentence (one thing you need to know about the situation in Crimea)

Review Crimea News Homework

Crimea Unit
We will be continually reviewing news and other sources to record information and understand what's happening in Crimea and what should we do.
Overall Goal: Students can engage in research/inquiry to investigate topics, and to analyze, integrate, and present information.
How we'll get there: We are going to look at both video and written reports on what's happening in Crimea and learn how to extract the most important information by teaching you both how these things are structured and how to read "between the lines."
What we need from you: Be attentive when we are speaking; help those around you focus on the work, seat yourself in the best place possible in the room to get work done.
