Plan: Assessment 2 Planning 

Our context for this term is "Who Are We? ". This concept is about who we are, where we are going, and what influences us as we grow as people. These ideas are going to be explored in the film Love, Simon as well as through an analysis of the influence of social media and societal issues facing teenagers.
