Hixson's Adult Trivia Night is coming up in January.  Click here for a link to all the details.  We will be asking parents to contribute items for two baskets to be auctioned off per team.  Each team's baskets will have a theme - as soon as the Dynamic theme is determined, we will be asking for your help.

Social Studies –

During the shortened Thanksgiving week students received study guides for the Unit One Assessment.  The answers to the study guide will be posted on my Edline website in the Ancient World Resources over the weekend, and we will go over them in class on Monday.

The test will be taken on December 3rd and will test information from all of the subjects we have studied so far this year.  It will not be open-note, so students should take the opportunity to study with their notes.  I have posted all notes on my website, so students may double check their own for accuracy.

All late work for Social Studies will be accepted until Dec. 16th. 

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

After school help is available in my room every Tuesday until 4:00
