Visit our district Facebook page to take a look at a typical day of learning in Andrea DeLollo’s sixth grade social studies class at Edmund J. O’Neal Middle School of Excellence.
During first period Friday morning, ordering events on a chronological timeline was the objective of the day. After a quick warmup exercise at their desks, students put their knowledge of BC, AD, BCE (before common era), and CE (common era) into action as they created a human timeline of historical events.
Each student was assigned an event which they shared with the class before working together to finding their spot in the timeline.
