5 to go...

This week we have wrapped up our Alphabet books.  These were books based on Africa and Asia (seventh grade standards).  Students had to find a word to match with each word in the alphabet.  They then had to find two facts and a picture to go along with the term they had choosen.

Next week - the LAST WEEK!!!! - we will create posters that look like mock Facebook pages.  They will choose a historical figure to create a page for.  They must have a profile photo, status updates, and friends based on what that person would have if they lived in today's time period.
