On the Washington, D.C. front, students are beginning to research various sights in the city that we are likely to visit. Everyone drew a number that corresponded with a particular sight. They are/will be given some time in school to work on this, but should certainly be working on it outside of school as well. The main questions I have asked them to consider are: What is the history of this point of interest? Why do you think we visit it? What other interesting information can you find about it? They do not have to write a formal report on it, but should be able to share their information with the class and answer questions about it.
