World History - We talked a little news to get things started in class today. Naturally, a fair amount of the attention was focused on tomorrow's election. After some news, we worked through chapter seven section four, which is the last section of chapter seven. This is about the economic advancements made during the middle of the Middle Ages. Students then worked on the chapter assessment, answering questions 9-17.
Government - We talked about the election as well. We watched a couple of videos from CNN explaining the course of the election as well as the way the electoral college works. Students were then given a prompt asking them to predict the winner of tomorrow's election, and provide an arguable reason for making that choice. We then started notes from chapter six, which happens to be about the presidency. For homework, students need to read pages 222-242 from the textbook.
In other news...
-Congratulations to our volleyball team who defeated Yorktown to win the 3A State Championship!
-Congratulations as well to our football team who won the sectional, and will move on to the regional this Friday!
Get out there and vote tomorrow everyone!
