1. Warm-Up-In your Norman Language Arts google doc, answer the following question. Make sure to date your post, fully explain your answer, and use complete sentences.



2. Weekly Vocabulary-You will use all 8 of your ten Weekly Vocabulary Words to create a Vocabulary Word Box. We have done one of these already this year, so this should not be difficult. Here is what your box should look like:




3. The Outsiders-It is time to read our class novel.

4. NC Write-You will be answering the NC Write prompt titled "Columbian Exchange."

5. Study Island-Tomorrow we are starting our ELA Benchmark. Before then, let's use Study Island to review what we have covered so far this year.

6. Independent Reading-Once you have finished your Study Island assignment, you need to read your library book. In your Reading Notebook, you need to complete 4 Summary Sketches.

7. Social Studies Warm-Up-Answer the following question in your Norman Social Studies Google doc.

What was one thing you learned about the Columbian Exchange that surprised you? Why did it do so? Remember to fully explain your answers.

8. Triangle Trade-Today, we will begin looking at the Triangle Trade. Go to the following website and wait for my instructions.

9. Global Trade Market-We will spend this week looking at the history of global trade. Your weekly project should help you learn more about this subject. Here is your assignment:

The class will soon be visited by King Jeremy the First from the country of Normania. He is looking to enter into trade with another continent or empire. You and your group will research your assigned continent or empire and use props to represent the items which your area can trade. Your goal is to entice King Jeremy the First into entering into a trading partnership with your group. Every member of the group will speak, and the trade props must be explained. (Example-What is Silk, and why would King Jeremy need it?) Groups must have and present at least 4 trade items. King Jeremy likes to ask questions so BE PREPARED!
