Extra, Extra, Extra Credit Alert!!!
FOR ALL CLASSES:
There are 2 extra credit opportunities next week check out the info below & take advantage!!!
#1- You all have an extra credit opportunity next week (Tuesday, October 14th) by attending Peer Court after school in portable #9 from 3:15-5:15. To earn the extra credit (and even some community service hours) you must be there the entire time! To get the extra credit answer the following questions about each case (there will be a maximum of 4 cases): a- What was the case about? (i.e. what are they in trouble for doing?), b- What was the jury's decision & did the judge change anything?, and c- Did you agree or disagree with the outcome? Why? Additionally some of you will have the opportunity to be jurors and ask questions (if you end up being chosen for that please answer the above questions for your case only AND write about what the jury experience was like...hard, easy, confusing, etc.) This write up on Peer Court will be due 1 week after the event (Tuesday, October 21st).
#2- Another extra credit opportunity for all classes is to attend the evening's (October 16th) Invisible Children Screening at 6:30 pm in the Main Gym on Thursday and turn in a write-up. Once again this will be a different presentation than we have seen before and what makes it extra special is that Newport Harbor alumni Jake Carroll & Brittany Deyan are featured in this film as it tells the story of their trip to Uganda in the summer of 2007. NHHS makes a few cameos in the film as well!
Your write-up should include a paragraph on each of the following: What did you see? What did you learn? How did are you/ are you not changed by this? Why? This write-up is due on or before Thursday, October 23rd.
