Reading Notes Discussion and Application

Hello! Today students came to class with 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4 reading notes complete, or at least most did. Students worked in small group to discuss them. In the end, we decided where the facts of the chapter would fit into the BIG IDEAS (government, economy, and culture) . Students then worked on the last two sections 4.5 and 4.7 with their partner and shared out in small groups adding details they didn't have. Students had a little time to complete a web that brought together the facts of the text with the BIG IDEAS! Students will need to be sure the web (and of course the rest of the reading notes) are complete for tomorrow.
