Welcome to sixth grade World Civilizations. Throughout the year we will study Ancient Civilizations around the world. In addition to history, geography will also be an important part of our studies.
With the Chromebooks the sixth grade will be utilizing this year, I have created an e-book with outlines and information for each unit in addition to the online text books we will be implementing this year. These books are accessible in school and at home on any Flash supported device. Students will each have a personalized account for their work. The text book will be used primarily for homework to supplement in class learning. However, all tests will be based on the notes and work done in class, which is what is directly outline in the ebook. The file for the pdf version of the ebook is posted above, it can also be accessed through the following link:

(The advantage of the pdf is that it is easier to scroll to specific pages.)
We will be doing a lot of PBL (project based learning) this year. We will review notes and information in class; students are then expected to study notes and outlines independently. In addition to the e-book, Prezi's and review information will be posted on Edmodo. We will then spend most of our class time on projects; primary . sources, presentations, readers theatre, posters, foldables, video clips, crafts..
Be sure you can access the Google Classroom page through your St. Chris Google account.
Make sure you are a member of both Edmodo.com groups and can log-in. There is a free app for phones and tablets for easy access.
