The Great Debate 2008

As our last major activity we also practiced debating. This was my first time trying this in class and I think that it wend very well. Here are some pictures of ace debtors (some more shy than others).

End of the Year

It's been a great year. We started with America in 1900 and traveled all the way to 2008. We also took the state required US & Illinois Constitution tests.

Debate WebQuest & 50 States Geography

Debate

First research "agree" or "disagree" debate points if you need to.

Next, decide on who you’re going to write to and find their name, address, and email.

Then write your rough draft of your postcard on your worksheet. Rough drafts are due next class.

50 States Geo

On your computer, Click on Start > All Programs > Map Games > US Map Puzzle and use the timed version and see how you do.

Or online, you can also try this resource for learning and testing but this one is my favorite.
