Watch the videos that are presented in order from left-to-right. (I may update with more as the day unfolds, up to the start of 4th Period.) Your task:
- After viewing these four videos, read the latest news articles that have been posted on the websites listed below. Since this is a developing story, you'll want to look for what is listed as the latest update on the news site. (You may use devices for this.)
- Write an extended paragraph summary (ON PAPER) of what is known about the incident in London that has occurred today, in your summary, you should provide a thoughtful, cohesive response that addresses the "5 W's: Who, What, When, Where, Why?" and the 1 H: "How?" A high-grade response will clearly represent the information that you've gathered through the videos that you have watched and factual information from the articles you've found below.
- Follow that with a second paragraph that addresses the following: Are there any differences between the coverage found on the British websites and the American websites. What may account for these differences--or, if you believe that there are no differences in the coverage, why is that? Be specific in your explanation and use specific examples from the stories.
- Finally, in a third paragraph, think back to the theme sin yesterday's activity: In what way is this an issue for the United States? And, in what way is this a global issue? (If you don't believe it's an issue for either, then state why that is.) Explain your position by showing the logic behind your response.
