Chapter 8 - Lesson 2 Notes, Chapter 8 Vocabulary Builder Worksheet, Columbian Exchange Maps Due Monday

Today I gave the students a break from lecture/note-taking and had them work on the Chapter 8 Vocabulary Builder worksheet. This is a very short formative (daily) assignment that is due tomorrow (12/1). Most students finished the worksheet during class but some did not. Please check with your student to see if they have completed this assignment.

The maps of the Columbian Exchange (pg. 267 in the book) are due on Monday 12/4. The map is also attached below. Students are to have at least 12 icons representing items that shipped or were carried either from Europe, Asia, Africa to the New World or vice versa. One required icon is "enslaved persons." This is important as it was the beginning of the slave trade in the New World. Please stay on your student so they get this done. The map will be a major summative grade and it will be all but impossible to pass for the 9 weeks if it is not completed and turned in on time.
