Study Guide (12/10/10)
Project (12/13/10)

STUDY HARD for finals! Good Luck/Skill!

I have uploaded a tentative list of what should be in your Unit 2 Notebook Table of Contents.  Please add the "Title Page with 4 illustrations and a paragraph description" as your first item.

I have also uploaded the Unit 2 Vocabulary (Terms and Names) list.  Please have this completed by the time I collect your notebooks the day of the test.

Please remind your parents/guardians that Back to School Night is just around the corner on Thursday, September 3, 2010.  It will be a great opportunity for them to meet me and find out what this class is all about!  I look forward to seeing you all there :)

Here are a few reminders and clarifications about our notebooks:

1. Record every assignment in your Table of Contents once you receive/are informed about it (makes it easier to remember during the moment rather than later).
2. Always include the name of assignment, date, and page number in your Table of Contents
3. Color-Code (with highlighters) the assignments in your Table of Contents, as well as the titles throughout the notebook (i.e. "Notes: The French revolution Begins).
4. Some suggested categories for your Table of Contents are : Warm-ups, Notes, Handouts, Textbook Assessments, Tests/Quizzes.
5. When recording a "handout" please record the title of that Handout as well (i.e. Guided Reading 7.1 The French Revolution Begins)
6. Remember, you are suppose to have 4 images on the Unit Cover Page and one paragraph explaining how each of those images relate to the Unit and your background knowledge about the unit.
7. You are also to have at LEAST FIVE images throughout the Unit that relate to the topics being covered.  At least 2 of these images have to be one of the following: Graphic organizers (web-map, chart, etc.), Maps, or timelines. 
8. Complete your calendars with the class agenda EVERY day.

***If you are still confused or have any further questions about the notebook, please come see me.
