Social Studies, Ms. Erika Pierce:
We have had completed THREE graded assignments. They are:
- The Reform Movement Project: Students either created a song parody or an infomercial about one of
the reform movements of the 1800s (women’s suffrage, prohibition, prison reform, education reform).
- Civil Rights Plaque: We created plaques about a person from the Civil Rights movement and these
went up onto the Civil Rights Wall in Ms. Pierce’s classroom.
- Geography quiz: We designed maps of Europe (with a key) that showed the two sides in World War I
(Allies and Central powers) and then used those maps to take a geography quiz on Europe during the
War.
Self-assessment questions:
1. What is going well for you in this class? Discuss three (3) things that are going well for you
in this class.
2. If you were telling someone else about this class, what would you say you have learned?
3. During the last 5 weeks, what have you put the most effort into in this class? This could be
related to classwork, behavior, study skills, friendships/peer relationships, or other things.
4. What were the results of your effort that you described in question 3 above?
5. What are your goals for this class for the remaining three weeks of this marking period?
