R5PN in the "notes" section of your notebook.
Pages 72-75 from your textbook.

Read and take R5PN from the article "Spain, Columbus, and Native Americans" that was passed out in class earlier this week.  These notes should appear in the "notes and work" section of your notebook.  

***unfortunately Ms Muntz cant figure out how to work the scanner on the copy machine, so there is no article to attach here, but if you have lost your copy, stop by room C2 if you need to get a new one.  :( 

Read and make Rule of Five Power Notes for the reading section titled "Columbus's Plan" on page 50 of your textbook.  Put these notes in the "notes" section of your notebook.
If you were absent or did not write down the instructions for R5PN here is a short list of how it is done:

1. Read the information (one paragraph at a time)
2. Identify key facts to remember
3. Take a note (no more than five words in length) *names and dates count as one word
4. Do NOT use complete sentences
5. Put notes in your own words, abbreviate, re-word, and summarize.

***If you did not yet get a textbook, please see Ms Muntz TODAY, or go to the library at school TODAY or TOMORROW between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM.

Fill in the names of the rivers, lakes, mountains etc according to the directions on your homework handout (in your notebook).  Be sure to be accurate, as there will be a quiz on these Monday and Tuesday (Sep 29-30).

1. Fill in the names of the states on your blank map and study them for the map quiz next week (Thursday or Friday).
