I understand students have been having difficult printing documents. I am still investigating the issue. I do know that the documents print without any problem through the Hebron media center.

Anyways, here it is, Age of Exploration Unit review. Please have this printed by Wednesday next week.

Grades and Middle Ages Test

First,

I know grades are only trickling in. I ask for patience.

Second,

The Middle Ages Test Grades are in the process of being posted. There will most likely be a curve which will appear in Snapgrades as a reduction in the overall value of the test. This will be applied after all tests are put into Snapgrades.

HW's due this week, work ahead.

World Religion Unit Test STUDY Tips

This is a simple Study Reminder...

Completing the review packet does not qualify as studying!

To now prepare for the test, simple fold the review packet along the center line (hot dog style) and now you have a flashcard, terms on one side, information on the other.

Remember to also review the PowerPoint presentation as well as the HW quizzes. Tomorrow's class will be designated for questions relating to the content.

Temporary Solution to Collection Upload


Due Dates for Textbook Sections

World History Scholars...

Due dates have been added to the first set of textbook sections. In class on Tuesday I will go over how I want homework notes taken and what to expect on the day a textbook section is due. If you have a strong desire to work ahead, start reading the sections to familiarize yourself with the material!

Also keep an eye out for documents relating to our first unit.

HOMEWORK!!!

Sorry for the late post but here we go:

1) Print out your article and bring it to class tomorrow

2) On a blank sheet of paper create three discussion questions to present to the class in regards to the article

These questions should be discussion based, not questions that can be answered by one person with a brief response, but questions that promote discussion.
