The mission of the EHMIS Social Studies Department is to cultivate the abilities of young people to make informed and reasoned decisions for the public good as citizens of a culturally diverse and democratic society in an interdependent world. In our 7th grade World Geography class, we will complete a variety of activities site as well as just learn a few things about other countries and cultures. Post a comment and I will answer you ASAP.

Doing a Kind Deed
One of the main ideas we talk about is living in an interdependent world - where we depend on everyone and places around us. In that idea, I'd like to send a bit of money to the victims of the deadly tornado that tore through Joplin, Missouri the other day. THIS IS NOT A REQUIREMENT. Still, I think if we all brought in one or two dollars, that it would be a nice gesture. We will figure out the exact organization in class and make our contribution by Thursday.

Hey gang. A few days ago, Mrs. Whelan took these class pictures. She sent them to me and I thought that you might like seeing them on our site. Hope you enjoy.
