Content: We began by reviewing handout 8-B that was completed in small groups in class on Tuesday, September 25. After discussing these scenarios, students were asked to complete a second 'What is the Motive?' worksheet individually; this was then handed in. Miss Chew reviewed each of these (in order to make sure each student understands the concepts of moral object and motive) and returned them to the students; we then went over them as a class. The remainder of the notes from chapter 2 were given. Students then had time in class to complete handout 8-C, Alternatives and Effects, individually. If this was not completed and turned in by the end of the block, it is homework due on Monday, October 1.

Content: We began the notes for the STOP Sign model for making moral decisions. After learning about the moral object and the intention, students applied the lesson to the 'What is the Motive?' worksheet (students worked in pairs; we then reviewed it as a large group). We then talked about the role that circumstances play in making a moral decision and reviewed some scenarios in which circumstances may or may not play a role in the moral goodness or evilness of the case. We finished by working in small groups on a worksheet determining the facts that need to be known in different situations before making a decision. We will go over this in class on Thursday, September 27.
