Current Events

There is a lot going on in the world today.  Big, history-book-worthy events!  We will try to follow some of these events and learn about them as they are happening.  In the process, will we also need to learn about Geography, History, Worldviews, Media biases, and the Signs of the Times.  We will be following various high-quality news sources, reading related articles, and work on expressing our own opinions on what is happening.  (Average 3 hrs/week homework)
