Let's Get Down to Business...

You are now working independently on your 'Research Based Argument'

Use this file to collect all of your notes for your research based argument:  What is the ISSSSSUE?

Use this resource on MONDAY to for  research: Advanced Search Tips

My expectation is that you have a topic and have collected your four sources by Tuesday. Some of you will have already gone on to begin taking notes. Those of you who have not selected your own topic are STRONGLY advised to choose a topic from this list: (sources linked)

Nuclear Power
College Education
What is a Healthy Diet?
Cell Phones

You must keep up to date by showing your progress through the stages of the report using BOTH the online chart (see right column) and the chart on my white board in the classroom

Reading Classes
H/W - 10 mins of Membean Practice
Suggested H/W: Begin reading and taking notes from 1 or two of your sources.

Due Date for Final Piece: Wednesday 11th C/D & E/F Classes. Friday 13th G/H Classes

That was such an amazing video :) I can't even describe that video in words. It was so simple but yet is so influential. There are just these little acts of kindness that can change somebodies life. It is not just that these people are doing this to get recognized, they are doing it out of there kind giving nature.

Mr. Buxton, the Progress Chart is on view only. Can you please change it so we can edit it.

That was a great video :) We know we are all not perfect but simple acts of kindness would make this world a better place. @ Jessica I think it is supposed to be that way we can only look at it. He has to make the alterations.

But patrick on the blog he said that "You must keep up to date by showing your progress through the stages of the report using BOTH the online chart (see right column) and the chart on my white board in the classroom" That is why I asked. Thanks for the help looking at it in a different prospective Patrick.


Mr. Buxton with the word Persist on Membean one of the word constellations was endure which was one of my previous words. I just found it very weird that some of these words link together.

I was inspired to go look up on Youtube random acts of kindness caught on camera and those made me almost start crying. Our world would be so much better if everyone did at least 1 act of kindness a day. It could be so simple like making that little girl feel like a superstar. Not all acts of kindness have to be huge.

Mr. Buxton for the sources do we have to get them approved by you or just to have them done?

That video was was really touching. I find it merely disappointing that not many people do this nowadays. With poverty and all, small acts of kindness are nearly requisite. (Membean Word)

oh my. so many comments but believe it or not I was crying throughout that video. it was truly touching and I'm going to do whatever I can to help. Whether it's putting in 20 cents, or helping somebody pick up something. Little acts like this make a huge difference I was bawling and was amazed at how some people really reach out. This video really was truly amazing.

Jessie,
To answer your question Mr. Buxton has to check everything off so yes he has to check your sources off.
