Last week in social studies, with only three days, we mostly worked on getting back into routine. We started with reviewing the test students took on the Friday before winter break, and did some expectations review. On Thursday, we practiced writing summaries, and on Friday we started in on the geography of our new unit - Japan!
This week, we are finishing up the Geography challenge, then watching a history channel documentary on Samurai. There are two links on the right side of this page to the videos we will be watching. Students will also be given guided C-Note templates for note-taking during the video. I am not 100% sure how long it will take to view the video, so we may move on and begin the chapter, or we may just work on finishing the video. Check back here for updates.
