Room 201 - 7th Grade Humanities

Spending the day out from @BurleySchool — and with @facinghistory! Focusing on how we can use literature to help understand the Holocaust. Excited to be here!

And that’s a wrap for the @BurleySchool 7th grade outdoor ed trip! Tired smiles and good memories all around!

Good times on the playground - even when it’s 32 out!

Guess what’s back @BurleySchool as a tradition? 7th Grade Winter Outdoor Ed trip!! Trading in some snow for a little rain and wind!

Ahh the dangers of WWI secret alliances. 7th graders @BurleySchool undertook a simulation today to understand how messy alliances were and how they contributed to the start of the war.
