We made it through the first week of school!! So far, so good. I am very excited to get our first unit underway. We will begin the U.S. Constitution on Monday, August 30, 2010. Our test, which students must pass to graduate, will be given mid October. The actual date will be posted soon. We will be working on this unit in class and at home. I like to show movies that represent different aspects of our government and how it works so be on the look-out for names and dates of the viewing.

Students will receive their copy of the Social Studies books, to be kept at home,on Monday as well. These need to be returned at the end of the year in good condition.

A syllabus is being printed and everyone will receive a copy as soon as it gets here :-)

We will begin our official week of homework, after the Labor Day holiday. Everyone knows there are two homework assignments every week. Current Events and Geography.

Have a great weekend everyone!
