Tell your friends!
Please make your friends and fellow gladiators that registered for this course aware of this blog and the assignment. I will be sending out a mailing as soon as I get a final class list, but I don't know when that will be. Spread the word! We don't want any of our classmates getting left behind!
American Colonies
I'm starting the book. Please do not hesitate to post any questions or concerns you have while reading. Take notes as you read. If the book is yours, you may want to highlight, underline, or make notes in the margins. Good luck, and enjoy! ;)

Class Supply List
For those of you that want to get an early start on purchasing your supplies (although I know that there are really good deals on most of these things as we get closer to the start of school), the list is as follows:
* 2" (minimum) 3-ring binder (I give a lot of materials to help you along the way)
* 2 spiral notebooks (for notes, pages will not be ripped out!)
* 1 pack of dividers (for binder)
* 1 box of 12 colored pencils (12 minimum- 24 maximum)
* 1 box of markers (8-12)
* 1 highlighter (any color)
* 2 blue or black ink pens
* 2 pencils
* college ruled notebook paper (in notebook and refilled as needed)
These supplies (with the exception of the binder, spiral notebooks, and paper) will be kept in class for use in completing various activities. They will be stored in our class cabinet for your individual use, and will be given back at the end of the school year. If there is anything on this list that you like to use on a regular basis at home, purchase 2. These materials are fairly inexpensive, but if anyone is in a personal situation where getting any of these would be a problem, please send me an email to mrsaborges@dadeschools.net instead of posting a question on here, and I will respond to the message. This information will remain private and I will try to work something out. All other questions and concerns should be posted as comments on this blog below.
P.S. Don't wait until the last minute to get your book!
