Week of November 8, 2010
Homework assigned last week, 8(3) and 7(4) were counted as extra credit for last term, but will be counted as regular homeworks for this term and are due by Wednesday. They will count towards the homework average for this term.
Thursday is Veterans Day. The 11th day of the 11th month at the 11th hour (Nov. 11, 1918)the Armistice that ended The Great War (WWI) was signed. The Great War was so terrible that it was viewed as "the war to end all wars" so the day was celebrated as Armistice Day. Today we celebrate this day as Veterans Day to honor the sacrifices of all veterans who have in the past or are today protecting American liberty. You will see poppy flowers being sold in honor of the veterans. These flowers were in the fields of Flanders (Belgium) on the western front in WWI.
This week we will focus on the Middle Ages and the impact of the Crusades.
Homework due by Friday is 10(1) The Rise of Islam (p.304-309)
Identify the terms, people, and places. Read the Infographic on page 307 and answer questions #1+2. Also, answer questions #3-6 on page 308 in complete sentences.

Current Event week #1 will be due by next Monday.
Please come after school to work on your homework if you are having problems completing the book work. I am after school almost every day, and will be glad to help anyone who needs it.
