Should the Driving Age be Raised?

Last class we went through a number of activities.  First off, the class decided on 3 different items that they would bring to a desert island if they were stranded.

After this, the class arranged a number of strips together in order to predict what order they should go in.  When this was compled, students read the article in the textbook found between page 542 and 549.  We then filled out a Gossip table with the supporting points that were given to raise the driving age.  After sharing the students' top 3 points, students then filled out a 'Seeing both Sides" worksheet which compares the pros and cons of raising the driving age.

Next class we will meet with completed sheets in order to work on the next part of the activity.
