Social Studies –
We have spent most of the week focused
on Hammurabi’s Law Code. This is the world’s
earliest example of a written law code.
Students have been comparing and contrasting this law code with both
modern day laws and the Hixson Handbook.
Next week, we will wrap up Mesopotamia with a look at some primary
source materials.
I have posted the notes for Mesopotamia
on Edline. They are available for
students to make certain that they have everything they need.
Grades have been updated and are posted on the Parent/Student
Portal.
After school help is available in my room every Tuesday until 4:00
