• I am available, as always, to answer any questions you may have to help you brainstorm ideas.
  • The most important thing about this unit is that you are curious about your topic. The other important thing is that the question is researchable, not just a “yes” or “no” question.  It should have depth, and you should not already know the answer.  This is not an opinion essay (for example, “Why should marijuana be legalized?”) but an investigative essay (for example, “How did prohibition laws affect marijuana laws, and with that in mind, how likely is it that marijuana will be legalized on a national level?”)
  • REMINDER: You cannot submit Wednesday’s assignment (due October 12th) until you get your research question approved by me first.
