On a daily basis a student is required to come to class prepared to participate in all activities. We are constantly having class discussions, assigned activities that go along with our books, reports by teams as well as individual reports. Each student is required to bring in a current event article on business or government. These articles have to be summarized and reported orally to the class. Students will be tested at the end of each course unit.
