Today we finished Chapter 8 Mexico with a test. From what I have seen so far, the majority have done rather well. Since next week is only a two day week, we will not begin a new chapter. Instead, we will do some reviewing, some ThinkLink practice quizzes, and maybe some map drawing.
Today after the test we played a version of Jepardy. The categories were Cities and States, Famous Men and Women, Government, History, Landmarks, North, South, East, or West, Presidents of the U.S., State Capitals, U.S. Geography, and World Geography. The teams were very competitive. They asked me if we could play again next week, and I said the typical “Mom” words, “Maybe”. They don’t realize that they are actually learning. So I might add that to next week’s agenda.
Until then, have a great weekend. Be well.
PS Thanks for the great lunch given by the PTSA and for the extra 30 minutes to eat, for Teacher Appreciation Week.
