Social Studies WIth Mrs. Clark
February 2, 2021
Dear Families,
As you know, the second quarter is ending. We are officially halfway through the school year. Be on the lookout for report cards coming out soon.
Seventh graders, my little Egyptologists, have been working very hard on learning about Ancient Egypt. They even got to talk to a real Egyptologist, Dr. Bob Brier aka Mr. Mummy. We will be moving into a quick study of the Silk Road and then onto a unit of African History and culture.
Eighth graders, my Constitutional Scholars, are currently working on analyzing and understanding the Bill of Rights. We will have a guest speaker on Friday, February 5, 2021 from the National Archives in Washington, D.C. We will be moving into some Supreme Court Case studies and an action civics project in the coming weeks.
Happy Groundhog's Day! (Though I heard there will be 6 more weeks of winter)
Mrs. Clark
