Frequently UNasked Questions: May 6, 2016 - May 13, 2016

I, for one, am relieved that we are FINALLY done with May the Fourth and Cinco de Mayo!  No more bad Star Wars jokes, and I can finally stop humming the sombrero song!!

Okay, down to business - not that you asked, and that is the theme of this blog post!  I am going to try to anticipate any and all questions you could POSSIBLY have about Social Studies for the next WEEK.  So here goes....

I missed one of the class lessons on politics and slavery (the map/chart classes).  What do I do?
Please meet with a friend who has both of those things done, OR check back here and I will post a PowerPoint with the presentation.  Catch up on the missing work, THEN complete the check-in questions and reflection (finish the pink sheet). Turn in the pink sheet to show me you got all this done. If you don't know what the pink sheet is, it is linked at the bottom of the page.

I didn't finish my Economics of Slavery station activity. What do I do?
I will leave the folders of materials with Mr. Wiggin.  When/if you have down time during Math or Science class, you can finish up your station activity.

I need to make up or finish my Westward Movement assessment.  What do I do?
Email me, and depending upon what you need to do, we will figure out an individual plan.

I didn't get a reading and handout to finish for Friday the 13th.  What do I do?
Run around in circles, screaming and panicking.

JUST KIDDING!  I was waiting to see if any of you would do that ;).

As usual, anything you need is attached as a file at the bottom of this post.  Print off what you need and do it.  Remember, you need to read the article and complete ONE of the post-reading activities THOROUGHLY.

I wanted to tell you that you are my most favoritest teacher EVER and I like you WAY more than I like any other Team 12 teacher!!!!
Awwww, that's so sweet of you to say that!  You're my favorite, too.

I didn't get a chance to sign up for Wellness Day.
Let me know ASAP and I will find out what we need to do.

I wasn't listening to you during the team meeting.  What are we doing?
I'm not answering that.  Ask your friends.

HOMEWORK:
