Social Studies:
Students are wrapping up our brief look at The Ancient Israelites and beginning a survey through Ancient China.
Homeroom: Information regarding the upcoming spinal screenings was sent home with girls Monday. If you do not want your child participating in this screening please sign and return the purple form she brought home today.
What Is Happening:
Monday: Students went to the library, graphed our recent 3.1 The First Israelites quiz results, and took a few minutes to evaluate the effectiveness of their learning practices and strategies. I was very please with our 88% team average! We also began our Preview Page of chapter 7, Early China in our notebooks. Most students finished this activity during our flextime at the end of the school day.
Tuesday: Students watched "Early Chinese Inventions" as an introduction to Chapter 7 and completed PQR2ST+ notes for the first main heading of section one "China's Geography".
Wednesday: Students who had their homework completed worked with their team to create a model of China's important landforms. No homework tonight.
Thursday: Students completed our reading notes for "The Shang Dynasty" and practiced drawing conclusions with Workbook Activity 13 in class. If they are not yet completed they may have a few minutes of homework.
