Seventh grade class undergoing a Renaissance

By VALERIE ROYER

Mr. Jason Weaver’s students in his seventh grade history class are studying the Renaissance time period. The Renaissance was a time of rebirth and renewal, where everybody started over. Everybody is picking something they want to improve themselves that has to do with school.
The students are going to be monitoring their progress over about three weeks. Every couple of days they will blog about their progress. “They are doing this because I think whatever you are studying, even history, it needs to be able to be applied to real life and useful to you. So this will be a real life situation that helps study the Renaissance time period,” Mr. Weaver said.
