This week in social studies, we will start out the week with wrapping up the Africa geography challenge from last week, then beginning our study of the vocabulary in chapter 12: Early Societies of West Africa. Students will work independently to take C-notes on important terms from the chapter, using an online learning site called Quizlet (Link on the right side of this page). They will be given 12 words, then use the site to get (and practice) the definitions of each word. Students will then write original sentences that use the words correctly, and draw simple pictures to illustrate them.
This week, students will also begin reading Chapter 12 and taking reading notes on the chapter.
Here is a breakdown of the week:
