This week, the classes have been working on completing their first Document Based Question (DBQ). While it has been challenging at times, the students have been making progress and expanding their knowledge of Social Studies and the proper way to write an essay. Please encourage the students to focus on preparing a strong outline which will make it much easier to write a strong essay. Beginning on Thursday, we will begin to cover a new chapter on Immigration.

Please continue to check the calendar for updated assignments so that we can all be informed of our Social Studies responsibilities. All late work will be due by the end of the day on November 10 in order to receive credit for the first marking period. Please call or send an email if you have any questions. ---Mr. Voll
