New Website Established; Midterm Posted

SPARTANS,

Behold! The class website is established. Check out the following site:

www.schoolandteacher.net

Look up your class by searching for me by my last name, or by using my number, 4704.

When you find your class period, click on "Projects". You will then see a section called "Projects this month". Next, click on "Details" and you should find the Word document detailing your midterm, the Biographical Cover Letter and Resume.

Let the research begin! Choose a historical figure who impacted the western hemisphere from Precolumbian times to 1900.

Please be sure to be creative in your ideas: the person should be significant, but does not just have to be a president or a general. Think about business people, explorers, scientists, artists, writers, inventors and other innovators. Remove your thinking from the confines of the cube.

Good luck, and remember to have your three choices for figures ready by Monday. It's first come, first served, so if someone gets "dibs" on your person first, try the next one on your list.

Due date? Tuesday, 28 October.

As always, email me with any questions.

Enjoy your nachos,
Mr. Todd
