This week we will be starting a new unit on the "Age of Exploration" and focusing on the three cultures that interacted: Native American, European and African.
Monday - Review and grade Native American projects. Students will also write a reflection on their experiences, hardships and enjoyment of the project.
Tuesday through Thursday - "Age of Exploration"
Friday - Week in review of the top news stories captured around the world.
MAJOR HOMEWORK FOR THE WEEK - students are to bring a news story into class and be prepared to discuss and present the relevant information of the article to the class. Students will also conference with me on Thursday so I know that they will be prepared for class on Friday. Newspapers will be provided and students can present an article from a newspaper article from the "web" and just print the article or write down the URL address.
An assignment guide will be posted in terms of expectations and how to earn the best possible grade.
