This week is the first of fourth quarter, and the beginning of our unit on South America!
We will be starting a three week project on Monday called the Council of South America. It is a similar to a model United Nations, except we focus on the continent of South America rather then the whole world. It is an exciting project, where the students get to play different roles in class. The first week of the project is dedicated to getting to know the South American continent. The second and third weeks are dedicated to debating and solving a real world issue that South America is currently facing. It is a project that puts together many of the concepts that the students have learned all year into a real world application.
Please remember that COD books are due every Friday. Our next test will be at the end of April – stay tuned for more information.
