Ms Charara 8th grade US History

I ended up in the hospital due to severe pain last night. I will most likely have surgery to take care of the problem and I should be back at school Wednesday.

On Monday, you will be working on checkpoint 3 which is subtopic 2. In your group, everyone will pick one new subtopic… But each one of you will be in charge of 1 heading under that new Sub topic. That way it can be completed in the two days that I am out.

it will be graded, but I will also add on extra credit because it was my original promise.
