Welcome to Government!

Welcome to Senior Government. This is a place to read up on current events and happenings in government. It will also be a discussion area for topics covered in class. You are required to come here 14 times per quarter and post a response. That is almost twice a week. So bookmark this site and visit it often. You will receive points for your posts and some extra points for extra postings.

Your responses should include what you think about the topic and how it affects your life. You may also respond to other's responses as long as you are appropriate. (AVOID PROFANITY AND RACIAL SLURS)You will be awarded points for your postings based on how your responses show your understanding of the topics.

If a current topic does not interest you, wait for the next. You must have at least 7 responses completed by midquarter with another minimum of 7 after midquarter. So, you must be an active blogger all quarter.




Have you been following the elections so far? Have you watched the conventions? Maybe some attended the Republican convention in St. Paul? What do you think so far? Share your ideas, comments or what you have done. If nothing, don't worry...we will take care of that! :)
