Only 10 School Days left until the Thanksgiving Holiday!For those of you thinking ahead to Winter Break... Our Final Exam Schedule has been shared with us! Please pay attention to our release times as this schedule is a lot different from last year. No teachers are giving finals out early - you will have to communicate with them about making up your final after the break! For those students in semester courses, you are now able to be exempted from those semester finals. Please check our Exemption Qualifications to ensure you are all set to exempt! If you have any questions, please let me know! We start a new unit this week - here's what we've got coming up:Monday: Today in class we are going to use primary sources to determine what perceptions Europeans held before exploration in 1492. Consider what you already know about Exploration from prior experiences, and then be ready to challenge those thoughts!
Tuesday: Using some digital tools like GimKit and Google Apps, we are going to look closer at the tools and ideas that allowed Europeans to navigate and explore before the Eastern Hemisphere.
Wednesday: In class today we are going to use Nearpod for an interactive lecture to discuss the role of new European states and advanced economies in spurring on exploration. Be ready to complete a short gallery walk as well!
Thursday/Friday: Students will use a HyperDoc to review the changes/impact of the Columbian Exchange in a new globalized network of the Atlantic World.
There is a lot of reading this week.. but we don't want to have to do it over Thanksgiving! Read now, sleep and eat later. :-)Comments are closed.
