Mrs. Walker's 6th Social Studies

Blackmon Road Middle School

Helpful Hints:

***We will use the textbook as a resource as we work through the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS)...so we will not go in order through the book. Please note the Chapter and section number...in order to know where we are getting our material!

*** Your binder/notebook needs four sections: Smart Starts, Classwork, Homework (vocabulary) and Maps! Please come to class prepared with paper and pencil each day!

*** We will routinely have a quiz each Thursday! Your Smart Starts serve as a great study guide!
