Focus+the+Nation

1. Check out this website and what this group is all about: http://www.focusthenation.org/index.php

2. Now check out UMF's plans to participate in "the all-day teach-in":

3. Pick a way that you can learn something new (new to you) about global warming and then do it. Maybe there was an activity on the Focus the Nation website, participate in something that UMF is offering, think of your own personal way to learn something new.

4. Now think about how you could help "focus the nation on real solutions to global warming" in your classroom. What could you do in your concentration to help focus your students on real solutions, to get them to apply your concentration to the situation or apply their knowledge to your concentration's content.

5. Write a blog entry that has 2 paragraphs. In the first paragraph described what you did to learn something and then list (bulleted list is fine) at least three things that you learned about global warming from your activity. In the second paragraph, describe your thoughts/answers to the questions above about helping your students focus on real solutions to global warming.
