Getting Ready For Projects

In government students will be finishing up Unit 5 this week. Their week should look like this: Notes on Procedural Justice Monday-Wednesday, Thursday Class Discussion/Debate on the Death penalty, followed by the Lesson Quiz. Next Wednesday will be the Unit 5 test so students will receive a Study Guide Thursday to study before their test. Everything on the test will be available on their Notes. After that test we will begin their Next Project.

In History Students are beginning study of the Great Depression. After this we will begin the New Deal leading into World War 2. There should be  Quiz this Thursday.

Thank you for everything you do to make your students successful.

Back To School

It's great to be back and I want to thank you again for sending your students to me to learn about America, our history, and our government.

A couple things about Quizzes, Students can always retake a quiz, but they must take it the first time in class. Also They can only retake the quiz once. I want them to take what they learned when we went over the quiz and then study in order to great the 2nd time. Otherwise they can just take it over and over and never really learn anything.

Next week students will be continuing with our regular schedule. That means, Vocab at the beginning of class with a Question of the Day, then notes and class discussion, then an Exit ticket most days. Then a Quiz at the end of the week.
 
Government will have a class discussion usually about the rights and interpretations of those rights we studied during the week on Thursdays so they should be preparing on Wednesday.

Next week All classes have a quiz on Monday. Have a great weekend.
