Hey all! I hope that you had a great break. It is time to get back to the work at hand and your research paper due date is right around the corner (April 24th). This week in World History, we are going to start by taking a look at Medieval European society. On Tuesday, you will be writing your essay on how Christianity took hold in the ancient world. This is your last DBQ essay for the year. On Wednesday, you will create a family crest! This has always been a fun project in the past and I hope that you will enjoy it this year as well. We will dive back into the notes on Thursday, but will probably only complete about half of the notes on that day so that I can give you a bit more time on your family crest. Friday will be a research day and an important one because it is one of the very last research days that I can give you considering the upcoming ACAP testing period. Take them serious and use your time wisely.

Hey all! This week in world history, we're going to start the new 9 weeks by focusing on the last one. You will have this final day in class to work on any work that you are missing. The last day that I can take any work for the 3rd quarter is on Tuesday, March 14th. On Tuesday, we will finish any notes from the first section of Medieval Europe. After those are finished, we will begin work on the DBQ for this quarter and and answer the question of why Christianity took hold in Medieval Europe. This work will continue until Thursday when we will work on a map of Europe. Friday is technically a research day, but if you need to finish the DBQ or the Map on this day, you may. This will of course lead us into Spring Break.
Hey all! This week in world history, we are going to dip our historical toes into Medieval Europe. This is a rather long unit, so buckle in for about 3-4 weeks of material and this is also where most of your classwork will come from (daily grades and one test grade). Monday will be a make up work day. Many of you have not turned work in for the Empires of Africa and many of you have still not completed the "Spread of Christianity" from the week before. This is obviously unsatisfactory. You will not be given a grace period in high school, so do not expect one from me. This next 9 weeks is fast and demanding and includes your research paper/project.
On Tuesday, we will start on our notes on the early middle ages and especially on Charlemagne who is considered to be the father of Europe. The counselors from the high school are supposed to be here on Tuesday as well to talk to the 8th grade class about preparing for 9th grade. These plans could change, so we will tell you if that is happening or not when we know. On Wednesday, you have the Checkpoint 3 test. Remember that the study guide is located on Google Classroom. There are also a couple of students who are currently working on study materials, but I highly recommend creating your own as well. Pretend like you are the teacher and getting ready to teach the subject and I promise you will do well. On Thursday, Mrs. Miller will teach you about feudalism in Europe. I expect everyone to be on their best behavior for her. Be respectful of the process that it takes to become a teacher because it is not an easy one. Friday will be another day for research. See you soon. |
