As the first quarter draws to the close, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the past two months and assess your development as a social studies student.  Please use the rubric on the reverse of this page to identify your progress so far this school year.  Please use black or blue ink to note or circle your assessment in each of the areas described.  In addition, please provide any comments that will help in my assessment of your progress.
