TOMORROW!! - TOPIC CHOICES DUE!

Students:

A final reminder - topic choices for the research project are due tomorrow.  If you do not submit your choice from the list of options, I will choose one for you.  I've been telling you for the last two weeks.  Make a decision!  Don't be like this guy:

Reminder - Homework due TUESDAY

Students:

Since you are so used to homework being due on Tuesday, I wanted to just throw out a quick reminder that your Treaty of Traverse des Sioux Choice HW is due on Tuesday of this coming week.  Don't forget.  If you need another copy of the directions or comic strip layout, they are available on the assignment wall or if you are out sick, I can email you a pdf.

Mr. Olson

Apologies

Students:

Just wanted to let you know grading your unit assessments is taking a bit longer than I hoped.  I'm trying to give really purposeful feedback and its taking quite a bit of time.  I know I said in class I was going to have them done by Monday but that's just not going to happen.  First through third hours ARE done and in the portal.  I hope to have fourth and seventh hours done by Tuesday.  Sorry for the delay and thank you for your patience.

Extra Review Resources for 3 branches of government.

Students:

As I HOPE you know, our 3 branches quiz is coming up Friday.  This will be a closed note quiz covering the jobs and leaders of each branch as well as the checks and balances.  You already have your notes and classwork on the 3 branches to study but I wanted to give you a couple of extra resources to use as you prepare, a couple of fun video clips, one a little old school and one a little new school:
