You have arrived at the Discovery Middle School social studies 6th grade blog and web page administered by Jennifer Cobb and Randy Hogue. These pages and blogs are dedicated to assisting students and parents in the efforts to keep up with not only what is going on class but also to serve as a resource to accompany our study of Greece, Rome, and the Western World.

Tuesday
Tuesday students took the PLT over Inventions and Scientific Revolution. This Performance Task was not so much of what students know but how students use primary source documents to support an argument and follow directions. This is the 3rd of 4 total PLT assessments for social studies. After completing the assessment, students continued work gathering information for their Data Charts that will be used to answer the two Socratic Seminar questions for Thursday. You should have your Data Chart completed by Wednesday when we will share them and write both your rough draft and final draft responses to the two questions.
