November 20th - November 21st

6th Grade: The 6th-grade students learned about the 4 Empires of Mesopotamia and graded them based on specific achievements. This week in class, they will review and discuss the grades they gave to each empire and the reasons behind their rankings. Additionally, there will be a brief preview of the next part of their unit, which is Ancient Persia.
 
7th Grade: Last week, the 7th-grade students had a wonderful Mock Trial. As a part of their study on the Boston Massacre, they will be participating in an activity called "What do you Meme?" Additionally, they will get a glimpse of the path toward independence by exploring Lexington and Concord.
 
8th Grade: This week, the 8th-grade students will be continuing a Gold Rush game that focuses on probability. The objective of the game is to help the students understand the thrill of discovering gold, as well as the disappointment of losing it. Additionally, the students will get a sneak peek into the next part of Unit 3, which focuses on the Era of Reform. 
 
On Tuesday, all students will have the opportunity to participate in a special Thanksgiving lesson!
 
Wishing you all a blessed Thanksgiving!
