Update

We are beginning our last unit of study in Georgia History! We will begin Ancient Civilization with the beginning of the 4th quarter on March 14.

Students were assigned the third quarter project today. They have the instructions as well as the grading rubric. A great place to start this project is the New Georgia Encyclopedia at www.newgeorgiaencyclopedia.org . Students must get their topic approved by me no later than Monday February 28.

These projects are due Wednesday March 9th and count as ten percent of the third quarter average.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
