28 & 29 September

The starter for today was: What things are important enough to you that you would be willing to move to a place you've never been?

Mrs. Lindorf began with a discussion of the starter.  She then handed back the Explorers tests from last class period.  The grades from this test are now posted on Skyward.

The vocabulary word for today was "burgesses."

We briefly discussed the Protestant Reformation and its affect on religion in Europe.

We began a new packet of assignments dealing with the American colonies (we will be working on this for the several class periods.

We began looking at the French Trappers, the coureurs de bois.
