Update of assignments ASAP

Hi guys,
I am printing off your paragraphs for the expo, so, for those of you to whom I sent editing directions, please complete the updates and return them to me. :-) If you already sent me your updated "Why" paragraph, then don't worry about it.

Okay, I also need e-mailed versions of everyone's biographies. I'm not going for absolute perfection. I'll even label them as "rough drafts", so..no worries.

For those of you who have changed your projects, just put together the best you can. Everyone has to start somewhere. :-)

Anyone who has questions can call me at 651-5049 (home) or my cell at 247-8992. Please feel free to do so.

You've all done excellent work so far! The Pre-regionals will be....
Either the Last week of January or the first week of February.

Also, at the pre-regional, there will be a separate exhibition of just students' history "stuff". For those of you who may not wish to compete, this would be a good alternative.

I’m doing Joseph McCarthy as my person for History Day. I’ve been having trouble deciding what person to pick for NHD originally I was going to study Ronald Reagan, then I was going to study Joe McCarthy, then I was Going to study Jane Austen, but, I finally decided to stick with Joe McCarthy since his story is truly one worth telling. I’ve always been fascinated with communism and the Soviet Union, so Joe McCarthy seemed like something fun to study. I also think it that people should understand that McCarthy was right, and he had nothing to do with HUAC in fact HUAC came before Joe McCarthy. I’m really looking forward to telling this story, and showing the truth.
