If you don't like to recite in class, see me before school, during X-block, during snack/homeroom or after school. Dear 8th graders,
Welcome to the Civics homework and discussion blog. This is the site to bookmark in case you are absent, leave your planner in your locker or forget where you wrote down your homework. You might also see me post study tips, links to exciting civics-related news and reminders about upcoming school events. I'm looking forward to meeting you in September! |
