Happy spring break everyone!
The 3rd card marking has ended and we are in the home stretch.
8th grade has begun a unit long project about Westward Expansion and The Oregon Trail. I got to relive my middle schools years with both classes as we played the old Oregon Trail game for part of the assignment.
7th Grade has begun learning about the first of the three major empires in West Africa, Ghana. This unit focus a lot on cultural diffusion and the accomplishments of West Africa that many of us never learned in school. It is a personal favorite of mine.
STEM Apps has been working deeper with coding learning abotu animation and basic games. By the end of the unit they will each develop their own game and our animation.
Have a great vacation everyone!
