Themes of Social Studies
Thursday students reviewed categorizing images into the 3/5 themes of social studies. We looked again at the themes Culture, Government, and Economics. They viewed the video The Middle Ages - Towns and recorded notes by placing the notes into the same three thematic categories. Finally, students began work on the Frayer Target to begin work on the vocabulary for chapter 4. A copy is included on the Edmodo post.
Quiz Tip: The quiz for chapter 4 will take place on Wednesday of next week.
