Students:

 

Unit 3 has begun!  There are resources that you can use by clicking on the unit sheet.  All you need to do is find "Unit 3" on the UNIT BY UNIT menu.

 

The first step in completing a successful unit is to goal set a grade with your parents.   Please take the time to look over the work necessary to get a "C" grade, and decide when it should be completed by.  The last day of Unit 3 is Friday, October 13th.  We will have a test on Unit 3 that day.

 

If you intend to earn a "B" grade, be aware that the resources to do so are only available in class.  You can not do the "B" level work at home.    

 

If you intend to earn an "A" grade on the unit, you really will have to be creative, or adventurous.  None of the "A" level work can be completed in class.  I am providing an extension for the "A" level work to Monday, October 16th because my on-line unit sheet did not appear over the Oct1st weekend.  The unit sheet contained web links that would assist in completing the A-level work.  (I never penalize a student for errors I make.)  

 

I recommend that a student bring the parent signature for goal setting to me by the first class of this week (Oct. 3 or 4), and complete their review cards by Friday, October 6th.  

 

The American Journey book work is the key to doing a good job, and working efficiently.  If you read Chapter 1 section 2 and 3 prior to starting other work, you will come across much that will assist you in completing other assignments on the Unit Sheet.

Projects

The Race for Empire

In Unit 4, students working on the A-level will have an opportunity to build and race a boat against other students of our class for the glories of conquest.  (Double - elimination brackets will be used.)

The boats will cost $4.00.  Student researched designs will be critical for the grade - not winning the race!
