Thursday Social Studies Update

6th Grade took a few notes about the Incan Empire. This was a follow up to the prior day's notes. We had a very challenging reading with some vocabulary words about the Incan Empire. Both classes told me they liked the reading, and I was glad to see the students making a good effort at such a tough reading.

8th Grade saw a film on Andrew Jackson and we talked about the removal of Native American Indians from the southern states in the Antebellum Period. Then we did a short reading and discussion.

7th Grade completed a problem solving activity and we discussed the importance of oil in the Saudi region.
