Friday, December 2

World History I - In world history classes today, we started with CNN Student News.  Then we started chapter fifteen.  Chapter fifteen is about European Conquest in the Americas.  We discussed Christopher Columbus and his encounters, the reasons why the Europeans were able to overtake the Native Americans, and started talking about Hernan Cortes.  We will finish this up on Monday.

Government - We started with CNN Student News here as well.  We had to finish the notes from yesterday about the Supreme Court focusing mainly on the opinions the court has to write.  Then directions were passed out for next week's research project.  Students were given a topic and figured out groups, and will begin research on Monday in the library.

In other news:
There is a boys basketball game tonight at home against Knightstown.  JV game starts at 6:30. 

Have a great weekend!
