Interactive Notebook
Students must bring their history
interactive notebook every day to
class. Notebooks will be graded
quarterly and become part of the
students grade. Tests and quizzes
will be taken from lectures and notes
from the notebook.
Grading
Grades are based on
individual and group
projects/assignments,
classwork, quizzes,
tests, homework, and
class participation. Each
assignment will have a
specific point value.
Informal assignments
like homework and
quizzes will have far less
point value than exams.

Flipped
Classroom
This model will require students to
Model videos outside of
view instructional
class. This method allows our class
time to be spent working with peers
and their teacher for understanding
and enrichment. Not watching videos
quickly leads to a student falling
behind and struggling in the class.
