Colonial America

Iowa testing is complete and we are ready to begin the unit on Colonial America. During the month of October the students will: Identify the the 13 colonies and determine why each was settled; differentiate economic, political, social and geographic aspects of the New England, Middle and Southern colonies; and discover the events that led up to the American Revolution. We will be mapping, creating 3 voice poems, learning about school during the 1600 and 1700's, and more!

The end of the first quarter is October 15th. There is no school October 16th and 19th.

Explorer Unit

We are just finishing the unit on Explorers. The test will be Wednesday 9/16 A day and Thursday 9/17 B day. A reminder that we will be taking the IOWA tests next week during the history class periods. Make sure you get a good night's sleep and eat breakfast!
