Extra Credit opportunity - State of the Union Address

Tonight President Obama is delivering the State of the Union address.  It begins at 6pm.

You can watch it on many TV stations but I'm going to watch it on whitehouse.gov because "you’ll be able to see charts, stats and data that helped inform President Obama’s policy decisions as he delivers his speech to the nation." This is something new and I recommend you check it out.



There are two ways to potentially earn extra credit:

1. Watch the speech and participate in a chat on Moodle in Gov Chat. (Regular Gov students, please join the AP Gov Chat.  Their enrollment key is the same as your enrollment key.)

2. Play State of the Union Bingo. Print out one of the cards and fill it out as you go.  You must fill it your card correctly and accurately to earn points.  Don't fake it - I'll know.



I think it will be fun to do both.  Play bingo AND participate in the chat. It will be like virtual Bingo.  If you win, you can type BINGO!!!! as if you are shouting.


This will be so fun.
