Your Winter Break Assignment

Happy Solstice!

The Winter Soltice (Sunset December 21) marks the day of the year with the least amount of daylight hours. The daylight hours increase untill they reach their maximum with the Summer Solstice, at which point the days will begin to get shorter. Pretty handy information for agrarian communities, don't you think?

Welcome back to the blog and thank you for checking in. The first semester is history and I think everyone learned a lot. We have quite a ways to go, but at this point we can say that we accomplished something.

By the way, the DBQ assignment on The Winter Break Assignment Sheet had the wrong pages. It should read:
DBQ #5 pages A19-A23

Leave a message to prove you were here. Some suggestions are; thoughts on the first semester, predictions/ questions for the second semester, compliments, criticisms, whatever. Please be mindful that this is a public forum, if you have messages of a more personal/ individual nature, drop me a line at sparker@nmcusd.org.

Enjoy your break- See you next year!
Peace,
Mr. Parker
