It was great to see so many of you at Back-to-School Night last night. I hope you enjoyed your time in the class. As a reminder, on Monday we will begin studying the Rise and Expansion of the Roman Empire. For those ambitious students who want to read ahead in the text to refresh their memory about this subject - Chapter 2 begins on page 42! Today in class we learned about how historians work to interpret the past. This ends our unit on the Tools of History. We will have a small quiz on this unit on Wednesday the 1st. There is no homework over the weekend - enjoy it.
