We started the day by taking two quizzes: vocabulary over chapters 21/23 and notebook quiz. We then completed a scavenger hunt over the AJC (which is Atlanta’s newspaper:). This Monday newspaper had SO MANY articles about the places we study. How cool is that? We will discuss the answers and newspapers on Monday. Tomorrow we will be watching a video about West Africa. It’s my favorite:)
Homework:
none
Remember: If you were absent, you must take the two quizzes. It is your responsibility to come to me for make-up work.
This is Mrs. Mullen saying:
Have fun at the talent show…..
