WEEK OF NOVEMBER 14 - 18

Monday will find the students working on a Scientist Yearbook. This is a yearbook page of 5 of the early game changes for science such as Galileo, Harvey, Bacon, Newton.

Tuesday will find us going over why the students choose the 5 they did and defending their choices. We will also be going over how to write a dbq or document based question.


Do you know who these Scientists are? Answers are at bottom.
