Okay..... I've been a little lame in my latest posting efforts. So, I've decided to turn the page and start fresh. Basically the academy students have been working on the Animal Farm/Totalitarianism project for the last few weeks. At this point students should have some sort of finished product that meets some of the project objectives.
Today, March 31, we'll be doing a timeline that explains events that led up to WWII.
