[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do 8th graders on the "Advanced" track have a culminating project? Do they take a Social Studies test? Is test on world history or US History? [/quote] For us, the big project in 6th was Model UN. The kids did a conference for a few days and even dressed up. etc. In 7th, it is National History Day. In 8th, they take the State test. Back to refugee (my 8th grader is currently reading it). It's a novel covering refugees from Nazi Germany, Cuba(90s), and Syria (modern). My kid actually ended up reading it a few years ago in 5th grade, so it's a repeat but still worth a read. Global Humanities and math are the only classes that require work in middle school.[/quote] So did my kids while in ES. Wonder why they chose the Refugees book. There are so many other choices![/quote] Agree--this doesn't seem like an appropriate level for the "enriched" novel in 8th grade. My kid read that in 5th grade. [/quote]
