Social Studies

Social Studies is one of those subjects that does not have a "FCAT" (now FSA) test correlated to it, but it still remains high on the priority list. Today the students brought home Social Studies work that you are welcome to check over. I know many of you were concerned about this grade. These three assignments will be graded and added to help boost the Social Studies grades.

Here are some expectations that the students should follow in order to complete their assignments:
  1. Each section that is based on a heading should have 3-4 bullet points from the section in the text. 
  2. Each section that has blank lines at the bottoms asks for a summary. The summary should be based on the entire text of that section. Each summary should be 5-7 sentences and include text-based evidence or details from the bullet points above.
  3. Some sections of the text ask specific questions. Please make sure these are completely answered. 
Thanks for your support and all your efforts to help enforce the level of expectations at home and school.
