8th Grade Projects - Great Depression

I am so sorry not to have posted more. I will eventually get into a rhythm and get this blog written consistently!

We have finished our Roaring 20's unit. The students worked hard in teams of 4 to create awesome magazines that discussed different aspects of the 20's. I am almost finished grading their magazines, and they are on display by the office. You should check them out if you get a chance!

I will be updating grades tonight. Students did an awesome job on their Roaring 20's essay test, and a good job on their magazines overall.

We are now studying the Great Depression. For their final project, they are working independently to build a website about the Great Depression. We are using Wix to build these websites, which will be a great resume builder when the students get older.

We will continue studying the Great Depression until the end of 3rd quarter, and then during 4th quarter we will be focusing on World War II.
