We will do an “overview” of chapters 9, 10, and 11 that will involve videos, Terms to Know, skills, notes, and “assessments-as-worksheets” before moving back to our regular routine (reading, notes, discussion) for the Middle Ages (chapters 12 & 13). There will still be a unit exam – you can purge all of your Unit 2 papers (chapters 5-8) and hold on to chapters 9-13. You can begin a new notebook at this time.
