Week of 23-27 February

Monday: No class for us today because we're going to The Hall at Patriot Place to discover the history behind the sport of football, our beloved NE Patriots, and to learn about the science behind concussions and how to better prevent them. When we return to school, we'll do some brief PARCC practice testing in the computer lab. Don't forget to have your crossword puzzle completed for tomorrow!



Tuesday: Today we'll look at what happened on This Day In History, and then we'll spend the rest of class playing a review game to recap the events leading up to the Articles of Confederation and the Articles themselves, in preparation for our upcoming test on Friday. We will be spending much of this week reviewing, so worry not! The only homework tonight is to review your notes from the unit. Begin studying now, don't cram the night before!

Wednesday: Today, we will finish playing our Review Game in class, and for homework, students will define 8 terms of their choosing on their vocabulary sheet, to be checked tomorrow. Do the work!!! I promise, it pays off!



Thursday: Today we will consolidate all of our vocab sheets and finish reviewing for the test. Studious notes are a MUST! They will benefit you greatly come test time, trust me! For homework, every student will STUDY for the test tomorrow, and in doing so, you will use a 3"x 5" index card (or piece of paper, if need be) for notes, to be used on the test tomorrow. To be clear: every student is required to take some notes on an index card - which notes you choose to write are entirely up to you.

What color is this dress???

Friday: Test Day! No homework over the weekend. We will be starting our next unit on the Constitutional Convention on Monday. Have a good weekend!
