Social Studies 8 is a course which covers the colonization of America to World War I. I believe that this nation was founded under exceptional circumstances and it is exciting to learn about
how it began. The textbook is called "Creating America : Beginnings through World War I. The students will have copies of the textbook to take home as well as a workbook, " Reading Study Guide". Students will be expected to bring their Reading Study Guides to class everyday.

Announcements Circle Maps Circle Maps are given as homework to help students learn the vocabulary necessary to understand social studies. In the center of the circle, we write the term. To the left of the term is the definition. To the right of the term is a picture or symbol drawn by the student.
Above the term, the student copies a sentence from the book, with the vocabulary word included in the sentence. Below the term, the student writes a sentence of his or her own using the term. IF A STUDENT DOES THE ASSIGNED CIRCLE MAPS, HE OR SHE WILL ALSO GET A HIGH SCORE ON THE VOCABULARY QUIZZES GIVEN THE NEXT DAY. THE POINTS ASSIGNED FOR DOING THE CIRCLE MAPS CAN ADD UP QUICKLY. PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR STUDENT TO STAY CURRENT WITH HOMEWORK. Discussion Topics Files No "Files" exist(s) |
