Current Events

This year we have linked our current events with the skills (habits) we are trying to teach students throughout the year. Sourcing, multiple perspectives, contextualizing, and close reading. These are so important that we are taking class time to all do the same current event. Each unit we will select a current event that fits the topic we are studying in history. We will post the current event form and then the articles for each unit. Diff students will complete two each unit.
