Friday: Students worked together to complete cloze notes in class about the early Greeks. They had at least 15 minutes and flextime to complete their Preview Page for The Ancient Greeks. Several students have a few more pictures to complete over the weekend. Please do not spend more than 20 minutes on this at home. Have a great weekend!
