Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome to your first day of high school!  I am so excited to be starting another year of this course, World Cultures!  We do a lot of different things in this class, including geography, culture, and also developing digital literacy skills.  I am very passionate about history and can't wait to share that with you!  If you get lost, or have any questions, make sure that you ask!  I can only help you if you are proactive in helping yourself!  I have one very clear and explicit expectation for all of you, while you are in this class I expect that you behave and act as a historian.  Below you will find our agenda, homework and resources for the day.
