Tuesday Social Studies Update

Test Friday for 6th, 7th and 8th Grades.

7th Grade completed a three page reading about the life of Gandhi today. At the conclusion of the reading, the students completed 10 questions about the reading. A few did not finish and they were assigned that task for homework. The students who finished turned their assignments in for a grade.

8th Grade spent half of the class in the media center as they continued time for their research. They were given a paper to write last week and Friday is the deadline. After that was completed, we returned to the classroom where we took overheads on the battles of the Revolutionary War.

6th Grade classes finished reading pages 72 through 76 and did a simple Vinn Diagram of what they had read, searching for the main ideas and supporting details to complete the diagram.
