First, is the link to the online textbook for the Period 3, Human Heritage Textbook

This will bring you to the glencoe media site and there you can access the audio for the Journey Across Time textbook we looked at this week. It WILL help you on Friday! Simply select the Journey Across Time from the drop down menu and navigate to the Chapter 9, Section 3. Enjoy!

Preview: Week of September 24, 2007

I have given some thought to this week’s schedule.

Tonight’s homework is completing the Fact/Opinion activity, which is another of the literacy strategies we have talked about.

Tomorrow during class we will complete questionnaires about the Journey across Time textbook.

Wednesday and Thursday we will take notes and review Chapter 10, Sections 1 and 2.

In period three we will continue work on Chapter 21.

Wednesday night’s homework is your diary for all classes.

Thursday night’s homework is to study for the quiz on Friday.

Period three will not have a quiz Friday, but will have a handout to complete.

There is no homework scheduled for the weekend.
