Welcome Back History Lovers!

We are back at it in history! Today in class we learned about what history is (stories), how do we learn about history (reading/hearing about those stories), and why we learn history (curiosity, want to know what it was like, want to know why something happened). Mr. M shared two stories - Emil & Lydia and the Mermaid. Students also took a United States History Pre-Test to see what they knew about our history/geogaphy!
