Welcome to the first day of the 2nd 6 Weeks! That’s a mouthful!
I reviewed Classcraft with you: I leveled everyone up over the weekend, so you all should have extra powers at this point.
***Guys, I’ll finish this soon, I promise!***

I am not sure when I will get back from my appointment this morning, so I am leaving all instructions here.
Today, we started out doing Middle Aged Spiders. This is simply just a collection of graphic organizers based off of the Middle Ages history in BB.
Go to Canterbury Tales and download or print Middle Ages Background for Spider. Print nine (9) Spider Maps. Do front and back. Save a tree.
Print it OneNote. Skim sections to look for the FOUR MOST IMPORTANT words from each section. Scroll down to see the section titles. Then, write down one short sentence explaining why it’s so important.
Honestly, I found it easiest to highlight the most important words as I read – it helped me when I was choosing words and writing about them.
If you need help, here is a list of important words from each section that you can use if you need help. Remember, you have to choose the four most important words. Don’t keep repeating the same word or idea.

Leaving Denmark and Beowulf’s funeral, we finally approached the coast of England. We hoisted our flags and were completely surprised that we were attacked – by French ships? French? What are French doing in our land? To figure that out, we have to do a little research.

During the last ten minutes, we talked about three extra credit opportunities that you have available to you: the Magna Carta, writing your own Magna Carta, and the French Scavenger Hunt.
