This week in World History students will be introduced to the Americas. On Monday students took notes on a short overview of the major empires of mesoamerica. On Tuesday, students will review all the units we have studied so far this semester (Rome, Islam, and Africa). Homework for Tuesday will be to review for the assessment on Wednesday. On Wednesday, students will take their first state test for History. It will cover the subjects that we have learned about so far this year.
