Weekly Announcement: 4/20 - 4/24
Hello Parents/Guardians, Starting today, we will begin our formal instruction through distance learning. To finish the school year we will have two more units: Ancient Greece and the Roman Republic. As you know, we have roughly five weeks remaining in the school year. Because of this, I will be shortening each of these units to fit the time that we have available. Ancient Greece will be two weeks (4/20 - 5/1) and the Roman Republic will be three weeks (5/4 - 5/21). For this week: I have posted four assignments that will all be due on Friday (4/24). Students can do them at their own pace. Each assignment will be worth 20 points. 1. Geography of Ancient Greece Follow Along (The video needed is the Pearson video titled "Impact of Geography on Ancient Greece") 2. Ancient Greece Google Slides Part 1 3. Ancient Greece Timeline and Power Words 4. Ancient Greece Readings - Minoan and Mycenaean Civilizations, Dark Ages, Daily Life in Athens, and Spartan Warriors/Peloponnesian War. Please have your student read the instructions for each assignment carefully. If they have any questions they/you can email me or add a private comment in the assignment and I will try to answer their question as soon as I can. Best regards, Will Woehler

Hello Parents/Guardians,
I hope everyone's families are healthy and doing well. This week I will continue providing content that can be done by students on a voluntary basis. I know many students will be gaining access to Chromebooks this week. If you or your student need help connecting to our classes Google Classroom please do not hesitate to contact me. The three assignments for this week will be listed below with a short description of each: 1. Topic 5 Lesson 5 e-text: Students will need to read through the lesson and complete any "journal" entries they see as they read. At the end of the reading there is a "Lesson Check" where students must answer questions pertaining to the reading. 2. The Cultural Heights of China's Han Dynasty Reading and Paragraph: Students must complete the Newsela reading about the Han dynasty and type an academic paragraph in the attached Google Doc. Guidelines are also attached for how students should format their paragraph. 3. Silk Road Crash Course Video and Questions: Students must watch the attached youtube video about the Silk Road Trade Route and answer then answer the questions about the video in the Google Doc. Thank you again and please let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, Mr. Woehler Hi Parents/Guardians,
As you know, we will begin distance/e-learning when we get back from Spring Break on April 20th. Until that time, I will continue posting voluntary assignments that will cover content we would currently be going over in class and will no longer have time to cover. I have posted four assignments on Google Classroom for this week. All assignments will cover Topic 5 Lesson 4 of our hardcover textbook. If students do not have access to Google Classroom they can complete the reading in their textbook (Topic 5 Lesson 4). Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions. My email if you don't have it is [email protected] Best regards, Mr. Woehler As you know, NMS will be closed until April 5th. In the meantime, I will be posting assignments to our classes Google Classroom that students can work on while we are out of school. These assignments will cover the topics we would be covering if we had class. These assignments will be optional. For this week, I have posted two assignments on Google Classroom:
Early Civilizations of China 1. Lesson 2 e-text: The Zhou Dynasty 2. Lesson 3 e-text: Chinese Belief Systems Directions: Students are to read through the e-text and complete the "journal" entries as they go along. I will also be posting other miscellaneous assignments throughout the week. These will also be optional. Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions. Best regards, Mr. Woehler This week in class we had our Topic 4 test on Monday. We then began our next topic titled "The Early Civilizations of China". This week students will be learning about the physical geography of China and its effect on early Chinese civilization.
