Welcome Back

Welcome back to the final weeks of sixth grade. For that reason your assessment load will be steadily increasing so you will have to bare down with your studies. Today, students picked up a Central American map and data chart. They received their 12 countries and worked to gather the capital cities that correspond. There is a map on page 427 in your text book. There are better maps online. There will be an assessment on Friday of this week which will cover matching the capitals with their country for the C level and location of each country on the map for the B-A+ level. Again, this assessment will be very easy if you prepare. You may prepare the same way you prepared for the South American political assessment. We will not take as much class time to study. You may build study stacks or any other tools and share them on Edmodo with your classmates.

Tomorrow, in class, there will be a retake opportunity for the chapter 35 assessment and the South American country/capital assessment. The retake covers the C level only portion of the assessment.
