 The Columbian Exchange was the sharing of both positive and negative things. It was named after Christopher Columbus. This refers to the New World, the Old World and Africa.

    The Native Americans gave us corn.

Europe sent textiles to Africa.  A sad part was the slavery.

Another sad part was the diseases brought over by the colonists. Many Native Americans died.

The wheel  from Europe gave us the plow and this made work easier. In conclusion, the Columbian Exchange definitely changed the world.

IF YOU DID NOT FINISH YOUR NOTES, PLEASE DO:

• A conflict is a struggle or problem.

• The conflict is either external or internal. 

• The author uses sequence words to describe the events. We need to know what is going on with the character.

• The character is showing us how they solve the problem or conflict.

• The characters act.

•  The characters do change while solving the conflict. 

 TYPES OF CONFLICT:

•  External:  

Person vs person

Person vs. society

Person vs. nature

Internal

Person vs. self

By solving the conflict, the reader arrives with a theme or message from the author!It is a learning moment for all of us.

Mrs. Worosz’s Wish List 

RESPECT—Respect yourself and others.

BE KIND—Combat bullyism that is around you.  Be nice, friendly, and caring toward all.  Do not judge others or make fun of their looks or clothes.  Do not join in the gossip trap.  Include someone new in your circle of friends.  Look out for each other. Apologize to someone that you have hurt. Have clean, decent language. Be a leader and good example.  Say: “Thank you.”

G.O.A.L.—Get Organized and Learn.  Get your homework and class work done on time.  Be neat and complete.  Take pride in your work.  Set your goals and work hard to attain them! Persevere! Never give up hope!

Focus on your schoolwork.  Your education is vital and important, now.  Adopt good study and work habits.  WORK HARD.   HAND IN QUALITY WORK.  Check your “G.P.S.”— GRAMMAR, PUNCTUATION, AND SPELLING

COMMUNICATE OPENLY AND HONESTLY WITH YOUR PARENTS AND TEACHERS.  BE HONEST! THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE!

Get your priorities straight.  Do your best.   The real key is WHBN= Work hard! Be nice!

Socialize in large groups.  Make sensible choices! The choices you make today will affect your future.  Budget your time wisely.  

BE A KID.  ENJOY YOUR YOUTH.  THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME TO BE AN ADULT.  ENJOY JUST BEING A KID AND HAVING GOOD WHOLESOME FUN.  Don’t be afraid to stand up for what you believe in and value.  Don’t be swayed by the so called “in” or “cool” crowd.  

Exercise.  Eat healthy foods.  Drink water and drink less soda.  Get plenty of sleep. Participate in sports!  Get moving.  

READ more on your own.  Go beyond and do extra on your own.  I am so proud of your reading efforts.  Yes, you can! Believe in yourself! I believe in you!

Be helpful.  Be independent.  Clean up after yourself.  Be responsible! Be a positive influence! 

REMEMBER:  TEAM:  Together Everyone Achieves More!

Best wishes to you and your family for a Happy and Safe Holiday Season!
