Reading Notes Scientific Revolution
Hello! Today we worked for a bit on the Cobb web which will be due as the ticket to take the assessment which is likely on Wednesday. Students also were returned their assessments from the Reformation and the Age of Exploration. The retake for the Reformation is a take home (pink sheet given today) retake due on Wednesday. The retake for the Age of Exploration is on Friday in class. Students were told exactly what to do today (Mrs. Cobb talked to both classes.) to prepare for it. Students with scores below 70% are expected to retake these for a highest possible retake score of 75%. Students then worked on the reading notes for chapter 34 with their partner. We discussed them one section at a time. We will complete them on Monday. Hope everyone gets out and enjoys the weather this weekend!
