Week of 9/25 - 9/28

This 4-day week in Social Studies, we will be beginning our study of the middle ages - and practice  note-taking and map-reading.  To start, we will take a closer look at the "Introduction to the Middle Ages Eras" article.  Students will use close reading protocol to mark the text, then summarize each paragraph in their own words on C-Note paper.

We will end the week with a History Alive (our textbook) geography challenge about medieval Europe.  In pairs, students will work to answer questions about the maps in the book and to add information to a blank map of Europe.  There is a link on the right side of the page to the maps in the book.

Here is a breakdown of the week:
Monday - Tuesday: Intro to Middle Ages Article and C-Notes  - Due Thursday 9/28
Wednesday - Thursday: Medieval Europe Geography Challenge - Due Monday 10/2
