Social Studies Class Thursday and Friday

Learning Target: Students will understand different perspectives of World War II (WWII).

Criteria for Success: Students will be successful when they can describe and compare different children of WWII in writing.

For the next two days we will be working on a webquest. The important thing to remember, in order to be successful, is to read all of the instructions, ask for help, and look at the website for directions!!

Here is the link to the webquest!

Social Studies Class

Hi Classs!
Here are your tasks for today:
Take today's National Geographic Bee and record your answer either in a blog post or on a separate sheet of paper. Also, record one new thing you learned and one thing you did know. Use the following website: http://www.nationalgeographic.com/geobee

They take yesterday's bee and record the same information (score, 1 new thing, and 1 thing you already knew)

Then go back to the original website and click on "Study Corner" to see sample questions and how to correctly answer.

Next, look a the following website: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/. This is one resource they suggest to study and help prepare for the GeoBee. Read 2 articles and write a 6-8 sentence paragraph for each article you read.

Remember, you can post your responses on my Blog page or on a piece of loose leaf paper, either way, let me know what you decided. Any questions, just ask! Happy studying!!
