In sixth grade the students will travel around the world examining the contributions of ancient and medieval cultures. After we explore early people, we will stop in Rome, China, Africa, Japan, and the Americas.
Please subscribe to the classroom via the Remind app. I will often push out pictures from the classroom or reminders about projects. Remind is also an efficient method of parent/teacher communication if you prefer to text. To sign up, text the class code @c9c2b2b to 81010.
Our first unit will be in Ancient Rome which inspired America's founders. To complement this unit we will also be exploring the upcoming presidential election.
I use a points-based system for grading. Larger assignments are worth more points, and therefore have more weight. Students will receive rubrics for projects and assessments.
