HERE is your launch doc if you need a refresher

I have compiled the list we came up with in class and created a list of our critical attributes of civilization.

Your project leader needs to download the following Research Doc sheet and share it with your group. You then need to complete the research doc today and with the time we have left tomorrow using the sites listed below and your answers from the Hunt, Nott, and Atlantic documents. You can also use the King, Robertson, and Santorum videos.

Again, what we are combatting is important. Here is former Senator and former CNN political commentator Rick Santorum, He made these comments just last year, His comments end at the 1:49 mark, (you can stop at the 40-second mark too) so there is no need to watch past that.

Please reach out to Mr. Orcutt regarding 504 and IEP accommodations, should they apply.

Reaching out to me also applies to anyone needing help or falling behind, you need to contact me PRIOR to the due date, and no, this does not mean the day before. Be proactive, not reactive.

Here is the list of Critical Attributes of Civilization YOU came up with. The critical attributes are bolded, the aspects of those attributes are bullet-pointed below them.
