October 7th-11th

This week, students are starting the week taking a look with current events by taking a look at the present conflicts in Syria and in Egypt.  Students will also spend time plotting catastrophic events using coordinate points, and will learn about a new artifact project at the end of the week.  We will also have a short assessment on the geography themes on Thursday and Friday this week.  Please remember that parent/teacher conferences are being held this Thursday, October 10th.  If you still need to schedule a time, please contact your child's conferencing teacher.  If you are unsure of who the conferencing teacher is, contact your child's advisory teacher or me for clarification.  School on both Thursday and Friday runs from 9 AM to 12 PM, and there is no school on Monday, December 14th in recognition of Columbus Day.

Homework this week:

* Study Geography Themes Notes
* Artifact Project visual rough draft due Tuesday, October 15th
* Artifact Project written rough draft due Wednesday, October 16th
