Timothy Grade 5 Social Studies, 2018-2019 (Period BRISB)

Course Description

This course has two main purposes. First, I will assist you in creating grade‐level artifacts (proofs) to demonstrate your mastery of South Carolina’s Grade 5 Social Studies standards. Second, I will prepare you for the SC Grade 5 end-of-year exam. It is my job to teach you and facilitate your review of the procedures required to complete scholarly products, and I will provide you with feedback to help you develop a deep understanding of the skills required for exam success. You are expected to achieve Met or Exemplary marks on your end-of-year exam without regard to where you are beginning the year.
