<< Back to Curriculum | American History 2007-2008

During this year we will look at American History, US Geography, Florida History, Civics and Economics! We have a lot to cover!

This is why attendance is important in my class. Many of my plans involve class participation activities. Teams and co-operative learning will be used in my class for most all topics. Your child will be assigned to a team for a nine week period and will complete various projects and assignments in this team. Assessments will be individual and graded upon the Walton County scale.
