The Great Space Debate
We have learned recently that by addressing our concerns with things that are happening in our country we can help change them. We have just finished writing suffrage letters to the President of the United States asking that women’s voting be granted. The letters we wrote are very similar to those written almost one hundred years ago.
Writing letters to the President or Congress is still a great way to get your point across. In Science class you have been learning quite a bit about outer space. We will use the knowledge you have learned to write a letter to President Bush regarding the Space program in the United States. There is a great debate about the program. Many believe it can help us advance science and technology while some believe it costs way too much money and that the money spent on it could be used for other things like education or healthcare. What do you think? For your letter you must:
- Research both sides of the topic.
- Decide if you are for the space program or against it.
- Write a letter to President Bush voicing your concerns.
