=Overview of content/topic level of unit plan:=

> Add to your wiki page in the upcoming modules as you develop your ideas. 2. As a group each of us wanted to incorporate technology and also connect our disciplines into this one unit. I hope we connect cohesively. 3. I didn't want to overwhelm too much into unit and not have enough time. Plus we have to share a computer lab in our district which makes it slightly difficult to do so we tried to share the load.** =Link to my unit plan file:=
 * The topic of the unit: **Gulf Oil Spill 2010**
 * The project idea—the real-world connections, role of the student, and a general idea of the overall project:
 * To connect science, literature, social studies to the current news topic: Gulf Oil Spill 2010. Students will have an opportunity to research, analyze, and make connections between past and current events.**
 * Concerns, questions, and desired feedback
 * 1. Is the scope of this project too large?
