In Teacher's Absence

  Students,
 I'm sorry that I can't be with you through this unit of your American History class, but here is a list of some of the topics you will be learning about and discussing with you're long-term substitute.

• Cover the basics of economics
• America's current economic situation
• How did it all start?
• China's role in the US economy
• China's artificially low currency value
• Current action being taken to repair the US economy
• Some radical actions that can be taken
• Project

For the project you will be required to come up with you're own plan of at least one thing that can be done to fix America's current economic situation. You will be required to give a speech to try to convince the class that you're plan is best for the economy. The class will then vote on the plan and if it passes the student gets a 100 for his or her project.

Have a great quarter! I can't wait to see you all when I return in April
