Around the world in 3 years


This is the Ballad of Magellan that we watched in class today.  Use this to prepare for the quiz next Wednesday for when we start talking about the Age of Exploration, as it is related to what we will be talking about next week.

8th Grade News 8/18/25



We are currently talking abut the European desire to create new trade routes with Asia and the discovery of the Americas, starting the Age of Exploration.  We will talk about figures such as Christopher Columbus, Samuel de Champlain, Walter Raleigh and others - along with the Native Americans that they encountered. 

Remember that there will be a test on Sept. 8.

Remember there is a quiz next Wednesday.
