6th Grade Homeroom & Religion/5th-8th SS

The newness of the year is starting to wear off and we are chugging right into our studies.  5th grade started off the year seeing how much of the country we knew by filling in a map of the United States. We have some work to do : ) As we go through the regions of our country we will continue to learn the geography that we pass through.  By June I hope for us to all be able to fill in that map!  Right now we have started to explore the Native Americans of our country. 

6th grade has started off the year learning about why we study history and historical careers.  Next up we will dive into Mesopotamia. 
In our Religion books we begin with the role models of our faith and continue through the Old Testament.

7th grade has started to see how our nation was founded with our exploration of the Thirteen Colonies.  

8th grade is discovering how we built our country back up after the Civil War with Reconstruction.
