Greetings, awesome Comm kids!
This space will be used for you to collaborate on some of the research you were doing today (and will be doing tomorrow).
To reiterate, in case you may have forgotten, these are your research questions:
What facts surprised you? (this question relates to the two videos we saw in class)
What are the hunger statistics for our AND surrounding communities?
Is there any one group that is affected disproportionately by hunger?
What impact does hunger have on school and resources?
Research "food desert"
Research SNAP
Additionally, I have linked the site No Kid Hungry to the blog--there are two other videos you can watch and there may even be some useful information for helping to answer those pesky research questions!

Greetings, Comm Kiddos!
Below you will find the link to the TED talk given by Tony Porter. The video is only about 12-15 minutes long, so please view it in its entirety. Click below to watch the video:

Then, in a well-thought out response, talk about the issues Porter discusses in the video. Whose problem IS violence against women? What does he think should be done about it?
Do you agree? Disagree? Explain.
Where do you stand on this issue? Has it been something you've ever thought about?
DUE DATE: OCTOBER 10, 2014 by midnight!!!
**Your response should be thoughtful, concise and free of any major errors that would detract from your message. If you need a word count, please try for 250-350 words.
