Today, we finished the religion unit in class - the last bit of fire has been extinguished on the unit! This is a photo of a pagoda in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, taken in 2011.
Dear class,
If you attended class today, you are now done with the Religion unit! I'm glad everyone worked hard and I am looking forward to grading the tests and getting them back to you soon. Here's what we did today in class:

Soundtrack: "Oye Como Va" by Carlos Santana. Selected for today because of last weekend being Cinco de Mayo (remembering a famous Mexican victory over the French) and because Carlos Santana is an amazing Mexican-American guitarist. Lyrics here.

News Brief: Kanta had the news brief today and selected an article about this story to talk about: BBC.com - Trump-Kim Jong-un summit set for Singapore on 12 June. We found North Korea in our world maps and noted that we did a news brief about it.
The next news brief was assigned to Peter.
We also watched the one minute BBC World News update. Here's the link to see the latest one minute update, at any time of day (it will probably be different from what we watched in class):
Religion Test: After the news brief, we started the test (I hope you did your homework and studied)! This took most of the rest of class, but that is okay. I'm glad students were taking their time and being thorough with their work.

Next class, we will continue learning about demographics and watch a documentary. Thanks for your hard work and focus today in class! Moving on to the last new learning target of the year!
