So far…from what I’ve graded…you guys have done phenomenal on the latest test. I still have the essays to grade for periods 4, 5, and 9, but if the first two classes are any indication, I’m sure everyone did great.
If anyone from 5th period is viewing this…I got an A on that lesson!!

So, we had a nice outing for this week’s podcast. I think it’s because I bribed you with a few extra credit vouchers. But regardless, I think it sounds awesome.
Remember…you too can be a part of the Kneighborhood Podcast.

The story of Siddhartha Gautama is a very intriguing one. From his birth to his ascetic life, Siddhartha Gautama deliberated long and hard over the secret to happiness.
Buddhism is the 4th largest religion in the world and according to a 2004 report, there are almost 6 million practicing Buddhists living in the United States.
There are also some celebrity Buddhists out there!!
Richard Gere, Steven Seagal, Kate Bosworth, Lisa Simpson, Tina Turner, Orlando Bloom, and Tiger Woods.

I realize that our unit on Ancient India is going pretty quickly. Even though the pace is really quick, I trust that each and everyone of you guys can handle the information.
We have 4 major topics to consider:
1 – The Geography of India (Chapter 13)
2 – The Artifacts of Mohenjo-Daro (Chapter 14)
3 – Hinduism (Chapter 15)
4 – Buddhism (Chapter 16)
Be sure to visit the room 4 tab for any resources you may need to access.

I hope everyone had a chance to dig up some artifacts at our archeological dig site today. We’ll be digging up some more artifacts tomorrow. Be sure to bring your tools with you.
I know some of you will be absent from class tomorrow because of a field trip. Be sure to check out the room 4 tab to get any resources you may need to complete the reading notes.
