Socials 8

The Plague simulation!  Each student went on a pilgrimage or travelled along a trade route - trying to avoid the plague.  Everyone attempted 4 different trips.  Unfortunately, we experienced a death rate of 41% to 51% for each trip -- similar to the actual death rate during the plague.

Students were also given a study guide for their upcoming Chapter 5 - The Late Middle Ages TEST - set for Friday December 2.  We will spend some class time this week reviewing and studying for the test.  I do encourage everyone to study at home as well.
