=Welcome to Mount Healthy's, 7th Grade World History Wiki Space!=

__//** STUDENTS CLICK HERE!!!! **//__ [|For edinsight quizes click here] This is my attempt to increase communication with students and parents as well as aide students to keep up to date with what is happening in my class. There are a couple of disclaimers I would like to make clear to students and Parents before you begin. My contact information is on the syllabus page.
 * While I have spent significant time developing this site, I am still very much of an amateur, so please be patient with me as I know not everything may not work.
 * There are several documents I have made available for parents and students to see. While these are the initial plans that we or I have set in place, every year and child is different so they are all subject to change. I will attempt to update as change comes along but I can not promise that.
 * For my history buffs out there, please remember I am teaching a class that covers 2,500 years of World history in 170+ days, 49 minutes a day. Some of our topics are given over to entire course loads in college, and I am teaching 12-14 years olds who are in many ways unprepared for some of the content, so be aware that at times I must simplify or glaze over certain things, if you have questions feel free to contact me.
 * Also people will notice two major Religions in our curriculum. Unfortunately (or fortunately) Religion is a major influential aspect of the ancient world, and a source of great conflict in our current world, as such it is mandated by the state that it be taught. This is always very difficult, but I want to assure Everyone that my job is to educate and not indoctrinate. We will focus on major beliefs of each religion, (in a simplified manner), origin, actions, and interactions amongst each other and the world to increase understanding in a globalized world.
 * To keep up on your child's progress you can access their grades on Progress Book
