7th GRADE SOCIAL STUDIES

Welcome back! 7th Grade has just completed a unit on the U.S. Constitution. The students made posters about the Constitutional Convention and wrote an essay about each one. Moving forward, we will see how the Constitution works today - that is, is it working the way the framers had intended for it to work? The New Republic was to face many challenges: The War of 1812, governing a brand new nation, the Industrial Revolution, the Steamboat Era, and the Civil War. I am hopeful that we can take a couple of field trips as the weather gets a little warmer! Looking forward to the second half. Mr. "M"
