The Colorado Democracy Challenge, a nonpartisan voter registration drive, will be holding a virtual session on Monday at 10:10am to register and pre-register students to vote! You can pre-register to vote in Colorado if you are 16 or older. This way, you’ll be set and ready to vote when you become eligible. In order to pre-register or register to vote, please remember to bring:

• An ID issued by the state of Colorado, like a license or a permit
OR, if you've never been given one, 
 • the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number
You can take a picture of your ID in preparation for the session, because you only need a number from the ID to register. If you need to use your SSN, ask your guardians for that information in advance

Turn in September Starters to Google Classroom!
Create a new document called "October Starters"

​October Starter 1: Review Justice Key Terms handout

1. Review all the key terms (remember, justice isn't just about punishment!)
2. Don't forget the concepts of security, liberty, and equality and how to balance those three
3. Highlight any key terms that stand out to you and/or resonate with your philosophy of justice to be able to integrate into your monologue
4. Do some research to help you better understand some of the key terms that you sound interesting to you
5. Share out which key terms you highlighted. Pick 1 and explain WHY you chose that. 

Lecture: Rawls' Justice as Fairness

Justice Monologue  (rest of class!)

1. Justice Monologue LIVE speech examples (as you listen, notice aspects that make for a good monologue)
   1. Ashley will read aloud Hannah Shew's example
   2. We'll watch an excerpt from  Malala Yousufzai's speech: 3:24- 7:45
2. Review the rubric  

Malala Yousufzai is a campaigner for girls' education from Pakistan. She was shot by the Taliban in 2012, when she was just 14 years old, but continued her work and became the youngest person ever to win the world-famous Nobel Peace Prize. On July 12 2013, the first ever Youth Takeover of the UN took place, organized by the President of the UN General Assembly among others. 
A World at School and partners brought together hundreds of young education advocates from around the world, including Malala Yousafzai, who made her first public speech since being attacked by the Taliban in Pakistan.

Finish your monologue! Be ready for rehearsing and refinement tomorrow. 
Reminder: You’ll have ~40 minutes to rehearse and refine before delivering it in class tomorrow.
