As you log on to your computer to email, Facebook, Twitter, or blog; take a moment to check out "The History of Summer Vacation" by clicking the Fact Monster link (http://sf.factmonster.com/spot/schoolyear1.html) Read the article and consider how summer vacations were and are for others and compare it to what your summer vacation is like. Are they similar? How? Are they different? Why? I'd love to hear from you!
Then, try the Ice Cream Quiz (http://sf.factmonster.com/quizzes/icecream/1.html) and tell me your score.
Welcome to Mrs. Woerner’s 7th and 8th Grade Social Studies! Seventh graders will focus on the Eastern Hemisphere (Africa, Asia, Australia, and Europe) from ancient civilizations to the present. Eighth graders will focus on United States' history from Revolution to Reconstruction. In addition to using course textbooks, we will also be using primary sources, activities, projects, videos, and readers’ theater to expand our understanding of history, geography, government, economics, and society.
2 right, 8 wrong Are they similar? Kinda. How? Some kids dont work during summer. Are they different?Yes Why? Because schools now a days (atleast ones around here) dont get out for 3 week and go back to school, and we dont go home for 3 months in the winter.
