Mr. Shaddox's 6th Grade Social Studies (2016-2017): January 2017

SUBSTITUTE LESSON: Region

Dear students,

Unfortunately, I'm out sick today. Please use this slideshow to guide your learning in social studies. I made this slideshow so that you could use it "step by step" and work independently. If you need clarification, please ask the substitute teacher. I'm expecting your Maine Region Map and your Region Map & Note Catcher to be done by Thursday. I will check them at the beginning of class and you will receive a HOWL: Perseverance grade.

Thanks,
Mr. Shaddox
