Students should join Google Classroom: x2dgra3 Social Studies Assigned to Class: 8-4(211) No homework today. Today, we read pages 10, 11 and 15 in our textbook. We discussed the idea of history and how we use the historical method to research. Students worked through the first section of their workbook (passed back to me at the end of class). A reminder to bring a 2' binder, a pencil and looseleaf/exercise to class each day! Students should join Google Classroom: vqcb2re back
