Review for Quiz and Current Events
Today in Mrs. Cobb's class we reviewed the latitude and longitude practice for the quiz on Friday. We also discussed the current events situation including Syria and 9/11. We also heard from students about different types of governments in ancient Greece. In Mr. Hogue's class students completed their running word wall of the vocabulary words for chapter 26. Students then completed a gallery walk to record the definitions. I can to visit Mr. Hogue's classes today and we reviewed together the latitude and longitude skills from the review sheet. Homework for tonight includes studying for retake and completion of the handout.
