Social Studies
I really enjoyed the African country presentations! There was so much creativity on display.
We are now studying a variety of concepts centered on Ancient Greece. I have developed a self-paced lesson on Google Classroom. Students are exploring the geography, government, mythology and the city-states of Athens and Sparta. Your child should be able to complete all of the work at school, I have reserved the computer lab for over a week. After Greece is Ancient Rome, with another technology centered project. Lastly, we will dive into the Middle Ages! Our Middle Ages lesson will tie in with Mrs. Grow's novels.
Language Arts
Thanks-you for entrusting your students with me this year; I have truly enjoyed the time!
Science
We are currently finishing up Genetics and Heredity, and preparing/taking our cumulative science final that covers all topics taught throughout the year. Students have been given a study guide to help prepare them for this test. It will count for 3x the normal grade, so it is extremely important to prepare and study for this test!!
As of May 9th, we will be starting the Human Sexuality Curriculum. So, if students chose to be in the alternative science class, schedules may change.
