Hey all! Tomorrow in class we are going to examine the history of Halloween! If we finish in time, we will also work on Chapter 5 notes for Ancient Greece! I will not be in class on Tuesday. You will be reading and answering questions about Greek Culture which will be found on Google Classroom. We will continue that activity on Wednesday. On Thursday and Friday, we will finish up notes on Ancient Greece.

Hey all! First, I want to congratulate Mr. Dean on his success in my class. Becoming a teacher is a long road with a lot of obstacles that most people, especially students, do not see. We try to be as transparent as possible to allow you students to see that process. Mr. Dean will graduate in December from the University of West Alabama!
That said, I will now return to teaching all classes, so most things will go back to how I handle classes (for better or worse). We are going to start by finishing up the notes for chapter 4. We will also move into the DBQ for Alexander the Great this week. The test will be on Thursday and the DBQ must be completed by end of class on Thursday because we are going to write the essay on Friday. Hey all! This week, Mr. Dean will be going over notes for Ancient Greece. You will also continue work on your presentations. As a word of caution, this 9 weeks moves fast. Please do everything within your power to finish assignments on time as we will have very limited options on accepting late work.
Hey everyone! So, we are a week into Mr. Dean's time for teaching all classes! This week, his plan is to go over the Nile River DBQ essays. He and I both will talk about this, as there were many essays that did not meet the standards required of 8th grade students. We will endeavor to do better as a group going forward. Remember, writing is an essential part of the learning process and there are much bigger writing assignments on the horizon. Tuesday, I will not be at school. Mr. Dean is my equal in the classroom, treat him that way. He will be playing a Blooket with you in preparation for the county world history test. You are taking the same test as students from Wetumpka, Holtville, and Elmore County. That test is on Wednesday. On Thursday and Friday, you will be learning about the Greek Gods. Fall break is on the 10th and 11th...be strong this week!
