Have a great summer!



Well, this is the final post for the year. I've had a super year with my Humanities 8 crew, I'm truly going to miss teaching them next year.


Here's some photo highlights of our year....

Renaissance Review Game Link

I found a fun review game for you guys, but I can't solve the problem yet! I keep running out of money. Try it, it's fun!

Today the book of manners was due. We worked on our vocabulary list for the final exam. We will spend the next few classes learning the last bit about the Renaissance and reviewing for our exam.

Today was the Romeo and Juliet test. We finished watching the movie. Now we are into review mode for the Provincial Exam.

Wow! Hot enough for you?

Humanities 8
Today we reviewed yesterday's work on the events that lead to the beginning of the Renaissance: the Plague, the rise of Individualism, and Trade and Commerce.

We also looked at women's roles in the Renaissance...it was pretty much a lousy deal.

We are almost finished Romeo and Juliet! Just one more page of the play to go.
