Tuesday, October 27

We'll be watching part of a video on Minnesota. It's called "Minnesota, A history of the land." You can check it out at www.historyoftheland.org

After that we'll be discussing in a group the places we've visited in Minnesota, and what was interesting about it.

Finally we'll be drawing on a map our preliminary route for our trip around the state.

Webquest

I've added a link for webquests. This first webquest is on the state of Minnesota and will be a collaborative effort between Geography, Math, Science, and English. We'll discuss this in class but just wanted to get this up so you can start thinking about it.

Week of March 16-20

We will be finishing with Europe this week. Probably on Thursday we will have a test. In order to get ready for this test we will be going to the computer lab on Tuesday. In the lab you will be able to once again play some games to better familiarize yourself with Europe. You also will be able to review by taking a quiz that will help get you ready.

Monday March 2

Over the course of the next 2 weeks we will be discussing all of Europe. So you will need to work pretty hard these next 2 weeks. Today we will be handing in your Europe Maps and taking notes on Chapter 11. You will also be assigned supplemental questions for chapter 11.

Week of February 23-27

We are going to be taking notes this week. Chapter 10-1 on Monday, 10-2 on Tuesday, and 10-3 and 10-4 on Friday. Remember Parent Teacher conferences are tonight and Thursday. So tell your parents. Over the weekend, since you didn't work as hard as you could have on Friday in the computer room you will be doing a map of Europe where you color and label.
