LP’s – Nov 2 to Nov 6

Posted on Nov 3  by Mr. Wood.

Lesson Plans will be posted here weekly in PDF format. In order to access them merely click on the correct class. As changes occur to the plans during the course of the week, I will note those changes at the end of the post – not on the PDF original – so please keep that in mind.

If you have any questions concerning the LPs please leave a reply. I will do my best to get back to you with an answer within 24 hrs.

I hope this helps you to better organize your school work and your life.

Salamou Alaykoum.

Lesson Plan Updates – as the week progresses, there may be changes to the Lesson Plans. I will note changes below:

Economics - the link to This American Life podcast on the Global Pool of Money – You may download a full transcript of the show and stream the episode.  I suggest in order to understand it fully, that you go back and listen to the entire show.

Economics – the link to This American Life podcast on Bad Bank – a 2009 follow up show to Global Pool of Money. The guys who explained the mortgage crisis, Alex Blumberg and NPR’s Adam Davidson—are back to help all of us understand the news. For instance, when we talk about an insolvent bank, what does it actually mean, and why are we giving hundreds of billions of dollars to rich bankers who screwed up their own businesses? Also, two guys go to New Jersey to look at a toxic asset.  If you liked Global Pool of Money – you’ll like this as well.

Senior Current Issues - the link to This American Life podcast on Scott Carrier’s show on “The Friendly Man”.  This also includes the other three chapters of the show.  Go to this link to stream the episode.
