Podcasts below for Common Assessment #1. We will spend a significant amount of time in the study of Economics on terminology. For this portion of the course we will work out of the text. In order to better understand lecture and discussion surrounding Economic terms, I will expect you to do Focus Questions prior to that discussion. Each of those Focus Question assignments are noted in blue below – due dates will be announced as we work through the semester. I’ve created MP3 podcasts to help you better understand each term. Go to the red link to find appropriate podcasts. Assignment due dates are bold and black.

Please take a look at my Arab Quarter.
Arab Quarter – Oakridge High School – room #112 – Muskegon, Mi, USA.
The Arab World is one of the most hospitable place I’ve traveled. And I’ve been around the Arab neighborhood. Morocco in 2006. Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine in 2009. Egypt in 2013. And Palestine again for three weeks this summer. Everywhere I’ve been in this part of the world – people have welcomed me with open arms. They are friendly, warm, and extremely knowledgable about the world.
This little Arab Quarter of mine – is dedicated to my Friends from Palestine and open to my students from Oakridge High School. It is my hope that they find the same kind of peace here that I’ve found there.
As Salamou Alyakoum.
