In this one time class, students will learn about the greatest empires that ever lived in South America. This class will start with a weekly current event. (Current event will be appropriate for this age group.) Students will have the opportunity to engage in discussion and critical thinking skills with their classmates. I will encourage all learners to participate in class discussion and classwork. It is my goal to reach all learners and to ensure they are obtaining the information. I will teach using PowerPoint to meet all learners students. Student will receive printables the morning OF the class.
