Dear parents of my 2A class:
Your children missed my class today due to testing. I did track them down and gave them their study guides. They have two guides; one guides needs the child to look up the answers and the other can be used as a question and answer sheet.
The EOC was moved to Wednesday for A day classes and Thursday for B day classes. There will not be a test on Rome. We are quickly looking at Chapter 12, Incas, Mayans and Aztecs.
All the work for the rest of the year will be classroom work only.
History Fair is still due May 20 and 21. It is important to get them in on time. I must grade them before the end of the nine weeks.
Helpful Hints History Fair:
folder/packet
1. title page
2. Process paper ( no numbering)
3.Bibliography ( at least Three sources)
4. Annotated Bibliography ( a note on how you used each source)
Board:
I had students take pictures of examples.
No process paper or bibliography on board
Students can decorate boards, pictures and captions explaining topics Leadership and Legacy
Can also use primary source documents.
Can use DVDs, CDs, props and primary artifacts in front or attached to the board. See example at www. NHD.org. Remember, these are National winners, so I am not expecting the same from first time students.

The students have been show this website many times and how to get to the help they need.
