China's One Child Policy
Objective: Given access to several primary source materials dealing with the various components affecting the One Child Policy in China, students will be able to explain with supporting detail their opinion on if the policy was a good idea or a bad idea, using a chart to identify the various strengths and weaknesses of the system.
Rationale: Overpopulation is a very real issue affecting the world today, and will become a bigger issue for countries if they are unable to support their population. China faced this real problem in the 1980's, and students should understand the decision china took and the consequences (both good and bad) for those decisions.
Evidence: By arguing through evidence that the One Child Policy was good or bad, the student will demonstrate their understanding of the various factors which went into the Policy and the effects of its implementation.

Step 1: As a table group, share the answers to the doc(s) you were assigned. Once that is been completed, take a look at step 2.
Step 2: Students will group the documents based on a common theme into sections of the grouping chart - This is the Grouping Chart. This activity will allow students to group similar ideas addressing the One Child Policy. One student should submit the grouping chart (with the answered included). Save the doc using the last names of the students in the group, listing them alphabetically.
Step 3: The last step is to read and answer the last "summary" article regarding the One Child Policy - Part 2 Article & Q's
