Just one more week left of this grading period. Still so much to learn and accomplish. We will start studying the 1950s when we return for a little over a week. I love studying his decade and period for many reasons, but at the same time realize it would have been tough to live in as well. There is much to learn in politics and culture from this era. There will be notes, but also some music, activities, and film footage used to study the information.
