Welcome back to the 2010-2011 school year! We are looking forward to an exciting year of learning the history of our great nation. This year, all 8th grade students will take a TAKS test covering everything we will learn in class this year.
The first week has been spent getting back into the "school groove": filling out forms, getting to know each other, discussing stories of perserverance, going over proper classroom procedures, and beginning our first assignment -- completing a map of the United States. We will begin prepping for our first unit, colonization, after this week. |
