The sixth week is here. Many of you are probably thinking that grades are coming soon, so let's start this "this week" there...
Unit 1 Exam - 100 points in the gradebook: take your m/c and frq scores, add them, divide by 65 and you'll get your score. So, if you're score was the class average of 47.7 you get 72.3 points in the gradebook.
What else is in the gradebook? Well, you've got two chapter reading quizzes (ch. 1 & 2), three weeks of blogging, several sets of homework points, and this week you'll pick up quiz points on Thur/Fri and another week's worth of blog points on Friday.
We're starting Unit 2, Political Beliefs and Behaviors this week. We'll be learning how people get their ideas about government and politics. How did your friend become a bleeding heart liberal? How did your other friend become a family values conservative? Why is public opinion split on so many issues? We'll answer these questions and many more in the next few weeks.
I'll be posting the Unit 2 Basics soon. Don't wait 'till the last minute this time! I'm going to toss in a wrinkle called the "Unit Basics Quiz". You love it...
~Mr. G.
