This week in Social Studies, students are continuing their work on the Civilizations of the Americas project. Last week, each student group chose/was assigned a particular civilization or topic on which to focus: Maya, Aztec, Inca, or the Achievements of all three civilizations, then began working on the reading notes associated with that chapter. Students will be finishing those reading notes this week, as well as beginning Vocabulary C-notes on their assigned chapter. Lastly, at the end of the week, each student will choose a topic within the chapter to focus on (we're calling it the "Focus Topic"). Students will become an expert on one aspect of their civilization - starting with C-Notes from the textbook.
Here is a breakdown of the week:
