Utah Studies--Friday, November 20, 2009

Today in class students turned in learning centers and practiced using indexes in anticipation of the research that they will begin on Monday about their group's research topic regarding Native American and settler interaction. DUE MONDAY: Nothing, but if you did not turn in your learning centers on Friday, you can still turn them in late and receive full credit as long as you have not used up your 2 free lates yet. Missing those will hurt your learning and your grade so get learning centers turned in ASAP!
