After the 7th graders took their Renaissance and Reformation test this week, they took a break from history to focus on current events. Our newsmagazine, Upfront, publishes a yearly world almanac that helps give students information about all of the world's countries. The students used maps and charts to look up information about what is going on in the world right now.
This week, the 8th graders finished up their unit about the 1920s. Students in this class really enjoy debates, so Mr. Palmieri had them debate the benefits and consequences of Prohibition. They debated in a fishbowl style, where only half of the class could speak in the inner circle, while the other students in the outer circle listened and took notes about the arguments.
This afternoon, the 8th graders will be having their Prohibition Party. Check back soon to see some pictures!
