Utah Studies Information

Today in class I told my students that I was wanted by the FBI and read them an FBI "X-File" I wrote in order to give them a creative way to write about themselves. That way we will introduce ourselves to each other. DUE TOMORROW: Hopefully, students will be able to finish their X-Files by the end of the class period.

Today in class I read my obituary to students. Tomorrow in class they will write their own obituaries. This activity is meant to get students thinking about their futures and what they hope to contribute to the world. DUE TOMORROW: Hopefully students will finish their obituaries by the end of the period.
