Summer Homework and MUN Schedule

Niiiiiii hao everyone!

Here is our schedule for the Summer. It has all the due dates for each portion of the MUN Conference. If we all check the blog regularly, then everything should run smoothly.

Monday, August 2nd - Your Summer Assignment is due. Your Summer Assignment is to write a two page, double paged summary of the MUN Topic. I also want you to attach one page of pictures. Each student, even if you are not coming to Summer Camp, must turn in their Summer Assignment to me, by August 9th.

Thursday, August 5th - Your Country Profile is due. In order to complete a country profile, you must research any and all important information about your country with your partner. GCP 8, please ask GCP 9, GCP or me for help. Remember, you should highlight anything that will be very important for the conference.

Thursday, August 12th - Your Position Paper is due. You and your partner must write a 2-3 page position paper and turn it into me before midnight (Taiwan time) on Thursday, August 12th. Anne, Annie, Eric, Sabrina, and myself will be more than happy to help you with any questions, and I will give you some more specific directions for that later.

Thursday, August 19th - Your Caucus Outline and Opening Remarks are due. Again, I will give you more specific directions later.

Tuesday, August 24th to Friday, Augsut 27th - We will have our MUN Conference. I hope you all will have a good time doing it! It can be a lot of fun or very boring, but that all depends on you!

:)

See you after the summer!!!

Ni hao,

I don't want to interrupt you, but I would just like to let you know that you are doing an excellent job! Keep up the good work. I like what I'm hearing (except when you start speaking in Chinese about Kaka, Ronaldo, and Rando).
