The rest of this semester will be spent looking at Westward Expansion, the Civil War, Reconstruction, Immigration and the Industrial Revolution. After winter break, we will continue to explore the 20th century, examining the Progressive Era, the World Wars, the Great Depression and beyond. Materials: Students are expected to come to class each day prepared to work. Necessary materials include a 3-4 three ring binder (to be shared with science, mathematics, and music), a folder, and loose leaf paper (for the binder). Students are also expected to have a working pencil or pen. Grading Policy: Students will receive a grade on all projects, writing assignments, quizzes and exams. Additionally, at least one homework a week will be graded. Grades on individual assignments will be reported as: Not Yet Proficient (NYP), Almost Proficient (AP), Proficient (P), and Highly Proficient (HP). The breakdown of grades and their equivalent percentages are listed below.
