Read the following articles about Grammar schools in the UK.

http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/grammar-schools-like-the-one-i-went-to-are-good-for-social-mobility-the-public-schools-most-a7178836.html
From each article, look up at least five words and define them in a word document. I will ask to hear about some of them later.
Make notes on and be ready to answer the following questions:
1. What are grammar schools?
2. Why do some people think they are a good thing? What benefits are there?
3. What are the negative aspects of grammar schools?
4. What do you think? Are they good or bad?
