Crosswords Posted to the iDisk

Please see the iDisk for crosswords for this week's lessons.

Study Guides on the iDisk for Test 1.2

I will provide paper copies on Friday.  The test Tuesday will cover GLE #67, Carthage, and the world history section of the GLE #63 timeline from A.D. 800 to 1600.

Edit:  GLE #68 will be on Test 1.3, not Test 1.2.

Update on Tuesday's Test

As I posted on the board in class, study:

• the Major System (click to see the web page discussed in class)
• the GLE #63 Timeline (300 B.C. to A.D. 800) (see the iDisk if you missed any notes)
• Marathon

Test and Binder Check on Tuesday

The next test will be on Tuesday. Study the GLE #63 timeline that we have covered up to that day.

Quiz and Binder Check on Tuesday

The quiz will cover Egypt, Hannibal, and the GLE #63 timeline (just the section on world history to 300 B.C.).  The binder check will only include mind maps. Check the iDisk for a version of the timeline that may be viewed as an Acrobat file. Look in the 8th Grade Social Studies folder > History>gle63. Use your mind map on Egypt to study for the quiz -- it is not based on the crossword puzzle that your did last week.

Quiz and Binder Check Tuesday

The quiz will only cover time zones and longitude.  I provided crossword puzzle study guides. If you lost your copy look on the iDisk (link to the right on this page) in the Quiz0101 folder.

The binder check will include only those crosswords that we went over in class (Egypt, Cradles, Longitude, and Time Zones).  Also included will be mind maps and the GLE #1 worksheet.

Don't panic, but do study!
