As we have progressed through week 2, many maps have poured in! Some of the products submitted are shown below in the photos. Also during week 2 we took our States & Capitals Test. Of the ones submitted as of Friday afternoon, my classes are averaging an 87% on the test after 103 submissions. That is a phenomenal average and exceeds our 75% mastery expectation. IF you have not earned a 75% or higher on the test, RETAKE IT. 75% is the expectation, my friends. If you have not taken it yet, get it done : ). We also did an activity pertaining to Theories of American Migration where you had to evaluate and summarize 4 different sources! Next week you will begin learning about and examining the various Native American cultures as well as some of the more advanced Ancient American Civilizations such as the Aztec, Inca and Maya.

AuthorMy name is Captain Danny Horne. I am going into my 12th year of teaching for the 2019-2020 school year. I have a Masters Degree from BYU in Educational Leadership, a Bachelor's from UVU in History/Military Science and I am endorsed to teach Special Education (taught it for 5 years), Gifted & Talented (A.L.L.), Coach, and to be an Administrator in schools. In other words, I am more than qualified to do what I do. I'm close to being done with a second Master's Degree, but have put that on hold as I explore Doctorate programs. I speak Polish, some English, love learning and speaking Spanish with students and I'm learning Italian because ...why not? I am also the Varsity Head Coach for Westlake Lacrosse, which is a great honor! I get to do two of my passions in life outside of being a husband and father: Teaching and Coaching. Archives
