Class News for Week of October 20

Hey gang! Well, we are closing in on the end of the 1st Marking Period. One important question to ask yourself - Is my notebook in a three-ring binder and in order? The notebook check will be upon you very soon!
This week we will wrap up our study of the United States. You will have your second 50 States Test as well as a Physical Map test early this week. We will finish the week with a short quiz on the U.S. and begin researching for our RV Across the U.S. project.
Get ready to finish up the 1st Marking Period!!

RV Across America Update

Hey gang. Here is an update on our long-term project for the United States. To recap for any student who is unsure what I am talking about... We are taking a RV trip across the U.S. (fictional!) and will be making about 160 different stops. Each of you will make a very short presentation for your destination at a time to be determined later on.

So here is the most important thing - EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE SIGNED UP BY FRIDAY OF THIS WEEK!!!

Any questions please let me know.

Extended Weekend - What to do.

Just because we won't see eachother for a very extended period of time doesn't mean that you should simply forget about reviewing your states or physical map of the U.S. You will be taking two quizzes when you return so please don't be this guy and sleep through the next four days or so!!! STUDY a little bit.

50 States Test

Please be studying the political map in preparation for your 50 states test. Remember, we want to get a 50 out of 50 on our final test scheduled for the end of the week of the 13th. Any questions, let me know.
