Hey 7th graders!
So, short week this week. Sadly, we will NOT have time to finish the unit we are starting. It's based around the material in chapter 11 of the text, and there are a lot of cool stories to cover! The American Civil War, what the heck was THAT all about? How did it affect the people of New Mexico? And what about the wild west? The late 1800s were a pretty interesting time. Billy the Kid, the Lincoln County War, and the wild west town of Las Vegas, New Mexico (which was probably a bit wilder than you think it was!) are some of the things we are going to talk about. It's going to be awesome!
Before Spring break, which starts on Friday, w're mostly going to talk about the Civil War. We'll cover the Lincoln County War when we come back from break.
Doesn't it seem like there are a lot of wars in history/ That's because there are a lot of wars in history.
A coupe of grades this week. You'll get the Guided Reading Sheet for Chapter 11 on Wednesday, and you'll have some class time to work on it. It will be due on Thursday, so anything you don't finish in class will be homework!
Also, on Thursday, we'll have a quiz on your Critical Facts.
And then on Friday, we all stay home and sleep in. Well. some of will stay home and sleep in. All right then, so I'M going to stay home and sleep in. You do what you want.
