CPWC Day 54 - Korea: A Divided Land


IMPORTANT:  Due to concerns about traffic, our departure time for the field trip on 11/28 has been moved up to 7:00 am.  This means you will need to be at school by 6:50 for attendance so the bus can leave promptly at 7:00.  Our return time will be around 2:30.

Please be sure to dress professionally and to wear comfortable shoes for our trip on Wednesday.  Also, you MUST bring a packed lunch to eat on the trip.  You will not have time or access to any place where you can purchase lunch.  Finally, there is a gift shop in the museum IF you choose to make a purchase.

Objective:  Compare and contrast the societies of North Korea and South Korea.

Task: After you've recorded the daily objective, please get out "Top Ten Things to Know About Korea."  We'll spend a few minutes discussing this article.  Then, we'll take an in-depth look at North Korea with "Inside North Korea."  Finally, you'll use the article, your video guide, and your reading notes to complete "The Character of Korea" worksheet.
