Today in class:

Today students were placed into groups of 6 or 7. Each group will be performing a talk-show next week. The shows will feature guest star appearances by famous explorers and scientists from the past! Included will be experts on such topics as mercantilism, the triangular trade, and the economic structure of the New World colonies. It is sure to be a star-studded and fascinating look at the Age of Exploration and Scientific Discovery! Stay tuned for more updates…
