Boy Scouts

Young men leaving school early for the campout on Feb. 4 MUST turn in their facies carta profile page BEFORE they leave.

I asked students about the date for this before and after Christmas as I was planning this unit. No one gave me a date for the campout. However, students received the instructions and 2 weeks of time to complete the assignment. There should be no problem with completing before they go. Points will be deducted if it is handed in late due to the scouting event.

Thanks,
Mrs. W

facies carta

I decided to make the facies carta page available to those of you who would like to complete it on the computer and print it out. To find it:
1) Click here: Link to Mrs. White's filing cabinet
2) The assignment is the 3rd one down... facies carta page
3) To use it, you will have to download or "save as" onto your computer or flash/thumb drive.
4) The instructions for the assignment are also there (4th assignment down).

Remember! This is not a point and click, copy and paste assignment. Learn about that person and complete the profile based on their life....

Welcome 2011

I hope you all had a nice wintery vacation! The snow over the past day is very beautiful, but please be sure to dress accordingly and be careful traveling to and from school.

This week being a short week, there will be no Thunderbolt time. Next week, a new TBT session starts. Please check your schedule to be sure you have a 5th session TBT class. Check with the office if there is a problem.

We will be starting our unit on Rome soon. If you wish to work on a Roman Independent study project, you need to study up for the pre-test. We will take the pre-test sometime next week.
