Week 11 - Friday: Global Issues in the news

We have a couple of groups that still need to present their Culture Quest Poster Project.
Afterwards...
We will take a look at the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict & read current news articles about this:
(at your table group, each of you will pick 1 of the following news articles to read--be sure you each read a different article); While reading, please use Google Extension "Split Screen"--have the article on one side and Dictionary.com or Google Translate on the other side. Look up the meaning of any words you do not understand.

• Ban offers ‘deepest sympathies’ to Israel on 20th anniversary of assassination of Yitzhak Rabin
• 'Fear must be eclipsed by wisdom’ to end violence between Israelis and Palestinians – UN rights chief
• ​UN and Middle East partners express ‘grave concern’ over escalating Israeli-Palestinian tensions
• ‘Still time to step back from brink,’ says Ban, returning from Israel, Palestine and Jordan
• Political failures, lack of hope, at root of latest Israeli-Palestinian violence – UN deputy chief

Then...Its time for this week's Flocabulary:
