Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome and great to see all you beautiful people! Today in class we will be adding illustrations and polishing our children's book of the conflict in the Middle East. Should be a fun day! Below you will find our agenda, homework, and resources for the day. Objectives:

Agenda:
Children's Book Project on the Middle East Conflict
Working in groups of two or three, create a children’s book about the Middle East Conflict.
