Social Studies News Week of: Sept. 12th

Over the course of the first 6 days of school we have been reviewing Map Skills & Geography related topics in Social Studies.  This week we will be starting our first unit on the 1st Civilizations and Mesopotamia.  We'll have a few assignments that will be due and graded this week:
* Ch. 1 Section 1 Assignment
* "Prehistory" Chart (in students' SS notebooks)
* Ch. 1 Sec. 3 Assignment

These assignments will be completed in class for the most part.  Once the assignments are graded, students will be attaching them into our SS notebooks.  Ask to see your student's notebook to see all assignments & notes.  Their notebooks should be well organized into sections as follows:

Section 1, 2 & 3 = Notes & assignments (always using the first available page)
Section 4 = Key Terms & Vocabulary (things will be added into this section this week)
Section 5 = Journal Questions (each day should have the date, the question and their answer.

Math Parents/Students: For math activities & assignments, see Mr. O'Connor's blog posts even if you have math with me--all assignments & activities are the same!
