We are going to try something new today!!  Since I am not there, I have prepared videos (using Screencastify) to go over your lesson and add all the things to it that I normally would share with you.  So the day can go just as it always would.   Begin by watching CNN Student News.  Please pay attention.  Typically you are doing vocab during this time, but since we did that together yesterday...just listen since so much has happened this week. We did an introduction to Exploration yesterday, so today we will begin the PowerPoint.  Click on the videos below and follow along with me in your notes to fill in the blanks.  Pause the videos when you are supposed to answer questions, or if you need to go back over something.   First off...Click on these Part One:  Introduction to New Technology  Part Two:  New Technology to Assessment Questions When we finish, complete the assessment questions.  There are six with this lesson.  You will also have a reading activity that goes over thi

Age of Exploration

We will finish out this week by beginning our study on the Age of Exploration.  We will see how Europe has fully emerged from the Middle Ages, embraced the Renaissance and with that began to explore the world around them.  We will follow each European country's route to North and South America and try to understand why they came over here to begin with.   This unit will not have a Prezi, but the Google Slide is linked under the "Assignments" tab.  Several other assignments are linked, but will be given to you on paper to draw, map and better understand what we are talking about.  I hope to also utilize some of the tools that I learned yesterday...so we will see!!

Wednesday, April 20

First of all, BEHAVE!! Today, you will be testing on the Renaissance and Reformation.  Classes will be shorter due to the Early Release (40 minutes).  Please listen to the substitute and be on your best behavior. Testing conditions are the same as always.  Be quiet and let others work to their best ability.  You will be working on a reading activity on Renaissance life when you are finished.  If you do not finish this in class, it will be a homework assignment.  This will count as a quiz grade! You need to do your best and be sure to answer the written response question.   I'll see you tomorrow!!
