Hello Parents,
I hope everyone is doing well. This week in Humanities/ Social Studies, we are continuing with our "Road to Revolution". We are examining the events and reasons that led to our American Revolution. This will be over the next 4 weeks and will include some drama, broadsides, and various connections to present day (or recent) revolutions. We will then examine government types and why we chose the government we have today. Tonight, students should be interviewing an adult in the household with questions related to revolutions.
Next Friday (5/8), we will be holding an auction so students can use their "d-backs" (team currency). After many weeks, students have been collecting quite a few of these, so an auction is a great way to spend them (also a great incentive). We are looking for small items such as school supplies, snacks, small games, $5 gift cards - Subway, iTunes, dunkin donuts, and any other kid fun item they would get excited over. We would appreciate the help because the more items we have, the bigger the auction. Students can drop the auction items with their advisory teacher. Thanks.
