Introduced the South America project - students will be completing part of the project in Social Studies, and part in Tech Ed. This is a long(ish) term project (due date is October 14). Students were given a detailed schedule (what we do each day, due dates for portions of the project, etc) as well as helpful templates for sections of the project. Ask your student to share their packet with you. This project should not require much time outside of class as long as students use the time they are given during social studies class to work on the project.
