Hello Parents and Guardians:
*Your child will receive a syllabus at the beginning of each week. If the syllabus is lost you may go to my blog to print another copy of it.
*This will be the first full week of classes so each child should have a folder and spiral that is the same color. The folder and spiral should be purple, if at all possible. Matching materials help students to stay organized.
*Students should know the following parts of our textbook, what material can be found and/or learned in each of the following parts: Table of Contents, Copyright Page, Atlas, Political Map, Physical Map, Glossary, Index, Spanish Glossary, Primary Sources Library, Chapter Focus Box, Terms, Graphic Organizer Activity, and Units. My students will take a short quiz on these parts of the book next Wednesday, September 10th.
