Continue watching Gandhi.
If you didn’t finish part 1, open it up and drag the dot at the bottom of the video player to the right until you reach where you left off.
If you finished part 1, today you will watch part 2. C Drive>Osborne>Southeast Asia> Gandhi Part 2
Remember that you have questions to answer from the video guide.
This week we are going to watch the movie Gandhi. This is a real movie that won the Academy Award for best picture in 1983. Ben Kingsley is the actor who plays Gandhi and he won the Academy Award for best actor that year as well. This movie does a perfect job of showing how India gained its independence from Great Britain. Great Britain ruled India and the people didn’t like that. It also explains why Pakistan was created. Pakistan used to be part of India.
As you watch the movie, you need to be mindful of the questions on this movie guide: GANDHI movie worksheet You need to answer the questions and you will turn the document in whenever you finish watching the movie. That won’t be until Thursday at the earliest.
To access the movie go to the C Drive>Osborne>Southeast Asia>Gandhi Part 1
Today is your final day with your current partner. When you return from Spring Break you will receive a new one.
There are no new assignments today. It is a make up day to complete any assignments that you and your partner haven’t finished yet. You can check Infinite Campus to see if you have anything missing. If there is any assignment for this class that doesn’t have a grade next to it, then I haven’t received it.
Most of you didn’t finish the India Timeline from yesterday. You need to finish that first and turn it in.
After you turn in your India Timeline, you need to download this document: Comparing Religions
You need to complete the chart that compares the 3 religions we’ve discussed in this class. You may go back and use previous assignments or the PowerPoints to help you.
*Explanation of some of the topics*
-Where is it practiced in the world? = You may list countries, regions, or sometimes continents
-Followers names = What are followers called? In Christianity the followers are called Christians
-Rules they follow = Do they have a special name of a set of rules they follow?
Use a different color of text for each religion. Whenever you finish save it and turn it in.

You will have about 15 minutes to put finishing touches on your PowerPoint and get ready to present. Make sure that your PowerPoint is in the correct folder Students>Osborne>Your Hour>Asia PowerPoint.
Make sure you are ready to present. Look over your PowerPoint with your partner and know what each other is going to say during the presentation. Your presentation score is much higher on this presentation so preparation is very important.
Today is probably your last full class period to work on the project. I will likely give you a little bit of time on Monday to get things in order, but we are probably going to start some presentations on Monday.
Whenever you finish your PowerPoint there is a specific folder I want you to save it in Students>Osborne>Your Hour>Asia PowerPoint
Whenever you are all the way finished you are allowed to:
-Work on any missing assignments from me
-Work on homework from another class
-Read a book
-Visit class links
Continue working on your PowerPoint. You will have the rest of the week. I will let you know on Friday if you will have Monday to work on the PowerPoint or if we will start presentations that day.
