Welcome Students!!

Welcome to HIGH SPEED HISTORY!!

I hope that you had an awesome summer and are ready for a wonderful year!! I sure am..

Did you know History can be fun?? I bet that for 90% of you History is your least favorite subject. Isn't it? Don't worry you won't hurt my feelings..

Please be honest when you take your intro-survey. You are not going to be graded on your opinion, this is your chance to voice it! Everything you tell me in your survey is confidential. If you have trouble reading (I need to know).. If you don't have a computer at home (I need to know)...etc.. In order for me to provide the best learning experience possible, I need to know where you are coming from.

We have lots to do so let's not waist time.


Here we go!
Your Missions to COMPLETE, no later than Friday, Aug. 17, are as follows:

First: I need your survey completed ASAP. It is very important that I know how many of you have internet at home. I also need to know what communication device you use the most frequently.

Second: Make sure that you have a GMAIL account created. Email me once you have created your account. LGipson816@gmail.com

Third: I need your release forms signed by your parents, stating that it is ok for you to use the internet at school. We can not get started until these three steps are complete.

P.S. The first 10 people to complete all three missions will get 5 points added to their first project grade. This also means that everyone who has not completed all three missions by Friday will get 5 points deducted from their first project grade. It's that important!
