What an awesome worksheet! I want to do it. Great post.
The story for global issues did not come up.. I could only get the worksheet. Advice?
To Terrie McNease: I set this one up as a listening activity, so students watch the video to get the answers to the questions. There is also a link at the bottom to an article by the New York Times if you want to incorporate some reading into this activity. (You can also view the video at that link if the YouTube video is blocked at your school.)
I hope that answers your question and thanks for using the site!
