In Mrs. Brooke Johnson’s 7th grade class, the students are starting the Revolutionary War unit. They will take guided notes on the causes and for the learning of the actual war, they are going to play a DnD (Dungeons and Dragons) version of it. A great interactive way to learn! The pictures show the students picking/designing their characters and tasks they will need/use in hopes of surviving the war.
