Research Topics!  This paper will be written in class.
First of all, the prohibited topics: Disney or Disneyland, rock/rap/singing/movie/sports stars or celebrities, animals because they’re cute, skateboarding, surfing, snowboarding, skiing, particular cars/planes/motorcycles/etc, mass murderers/criminals, video games, tv shows, movies.

Pick something that you can tell a brief anecdote about, something you can show somebody doing or a reason for learning something. Pick something you can ask at least five good questions about that require more than a sentence or two to answer. Hobbies, careers, scientific/mathematical topics, historical topics, health and medical topics are more what we are looking for.

By EOP Wednesday, you will need a topic and 5 solid questions.

Start looking for topics/sources! I would like to see several choices by the end of the period.
