Monday Social Studies Update

This week all classes are starting material for test #6.

In 7th Grade we watched a very short film about Saudi Arabia and started talking about why that nation is so important to the US economy. We read the section out loud in pairs and then started a very good discussion with some notes.

8th Grade read in groups and we talked about changes in the state in the the Antebellum period.

6th Grade concluded some notes and discussed their test,
which will be tomorrow. For the final time, we completed a practice map of the nations of South America. Homework: Students wrote a half page summary of the Colombian Exchange reading found on page 123.
