Grade 8 HISTORY: Update

"Making mistakes are okay, as long as you learn from them..."

Dear Grade 8s,


As promised, I am posting your homework for next week (yes, ahead of time). Actually, I think you'll be happy to know that I won't be assigning C-NOTES until the week after because I will be the one creating the C-NOTES from pgs. 28-39 of the textbook...you will be copying the notes down during one of our History lessons.


Therefore, the homework that I will be assigning for this upcoming week is a study period for an upcoming History Test. The Test (scheduled for this upcoming Thursday, September 29) will be based on the C-NOTES that is due this Monday (textbook, pgs. 21-25).
Please make sure to make good C-NOTES from these pages. So there you go, you have an upcoming Test this Thursday...study the C-NOTES you are making from pgs. 21-25. Good luck with the studying!

Sincerely, Mr. C
