Tuesday, September 18th, 2007

Hey everyone,

I am having some trouble with my website, so all posts are on the front page.
Here are the documents FOR THE 8th GRADERS that we have used so far:

Civil Rights Timeline
Booker T. Washington
Frederick Douglass Questions
DuBois

HERE ARE THE DOCUMENTS THAT YOU MIGHT NEED FOR THE 7TH GRADERS!:

Amendments

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

Hey guys,

Good work in class today on the Amendments poster.  We’ll keep talking about them tomorrow.

For homework tonight, read the Reconstruction Review packet and answer the four questions at the end IN YOUR SPIRAL BOUND NOTEBOOK. I will collect your notebooks and grade them periodically.  It might be tomorrow.  It might be Friday.  Who knows?!

four days later…

We are only four days into school, and I forgot to post something yesterday.

So, 7th Grade, continue to work on your big maps. Many of you are done, but for the rest of you they are due on Friday. Even though it is Rosh Hashanah, I think you should be able to be done based on the class time spent on it and having Tuesday night to work on it.

If you need a copy of the handout, Big Map (commerce)
and Big map (population).

Good luck, and see you tomorrow.

First day..
