Hi guys.  I am not going to be in today.  Here's what you will be doing:

1.  You need to read an article about Sierra Leone today.  The article is called, "Sierra Leone's Diamonds Still A Source Of Contention" and can be found here.
2.  Go to Schoology to take the quiz on Blood Diamond and the article.  You can use the Blood Diamond packet on the quiz and any notes you may have.

IMPORTANT: most of the quiz is short answer. Make sure your answers are thoughtful and have examples.  Plus, you need to write the MelCon.   The Melcon is a compare and contrast.  So you need to identify ways in which Blood Diamond and the Belgian Congo are both SIMILAR and DIFFERENT.  (You can identify 2 similarities and 1 difference or 1 similarity and 2 differences)

Here is the Rubric:

Blood Diamond

We have been watching Blood Diamond in class.  Here is the packet that goes with the film.  On Wednesday, we will have a quiz and you will need to write a paragraph comparing the situation depicted in Blood Diamond to that of the Belgian Congo.
