November 25

The students have been learning about the history of Russia over the past week. We will be finishing Russia tomorrow and after Thanksgiving we will be moving on to East Asia. I hope everyone has a restful and relaxing time during Thanksgiving. 

November 19

The students have been reading about the history of Russia in class by rotating in stations. There are 10 different time periods that students are reading about and then deciding if it is an economic, social, or political issue and then writing notes.

Week of November 11-15

The students will be benchmark testing in the mornings and doing boot camp work in the afternoon so no homework this week.
