Week of 9/12 and Guilford Courthouse Extra Credit

Thanks for checking in.  This week we will focus on the early settlement of North Carolina.  Mon is a little out of sequence, and we will be talking about 9/11, and the roots of modern terrorism.  The rest of the week we will discuss Columbus, the Lost Colony, and the Jamestown settlement.  

The extra credit details/instructions are below.   

1 Print the worksheets. Click on "GC" in the documents section of my website.

2 Go to the park find the information and fill in the worksheets. This may take many hours. There is a battlefield section and a museum section. I believe the Museum closes at 5 pm daily. 

3 Take a picture of yourself at the park near an identifiable landmark. Pictures can be emailed, brought in on device, or printed.

4 Turn both in by 10/26. No exceptions can be made because this is the last day of the grading period.

5. DO NOT wait until the last minute to do this. Weather does not always cooperate, and you probably cannot get it done after school in one trip. It is NOT alright to take off of school to do this.

6 If you all go to the park together it is OK to do this with friends. Do not give your work to someone else. 

7 You will receive 5 100%'s in the grade book; the equivalent of a perfect test grade.
