9C - Homework for Wednesday, November 4

Write a response to John Green's vlog, "Understanding the Refugee Crisis in Syria, Europe and around the World."   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVV6_1Sef9M  Remember when you write a comment, you are responding to something that has been said, and you are agreeing or disagreeing with it.  You are giving your own opinion and you have to support your opinion with facts.

Respond to anything John Green says about refugees and human rights.  You can agree with him or disagree with him but you have to say WHY you agree or disagree with him.  Be specific.  I want to know what you are specifically responding to and what your specific argument is.

Start your comment with a short summary of the video (the gist).

Write about 200-250 words.

If you want to send me a draft via email, I will be happy to give you feedback.

Due at the beginning of class on Wednesday, November 4.  Then we are moving on to another topic.
