Welcome, students and families! I’m excited to begin a new school year and a new journey through Texas History. This year, students will explore the people, places, events, and ideas that shaped the Lone Star State while continuing to build the skills needed to be successful social studies students. During our first week, we will focus on reviewing important social studies skills, classroom expectations, and the routines we will use throughout the year. From there, we will quickly move into our first major unit: Texas Geography!
One important part of our class will be our Notes Modules. Students should be prepared to complete these modules outside of class when assigned so that our classroom time can be used for discussion, practice, projects, and activities that help bring Texas History to life.
I’m looking forward to a great year of learning, growth, and exploration. Thank you, families, for your support—I’m excited to see what our students accomplish this year!
Let’s have a great year in Texas History! 🤠
