HOME : SOCIAL STUDIES MADE EASY BY JAMES SWINNERTON

OK, THERE IS NO NEED TO FEAR AND LOATHE SOCIAL STUDIES EVER AGAIN. OF COURSE, YOU WILL HAVE TO WORK AT IT AND BREAK A SWEAT ONCE IN AWHILE. BUT IF YOU'RE WILLING TO TRY, YOU CAN HAVE GREAT SUCCESS THIS YEAR!

SOPHOMORES: YOU WILL BE HAVING A REGENTS EXAM IN SEVERAL MONTHS THAT WILL TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF WORLD HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY (OR, AS I LIKE TO CALL IT, EVERYTHING THAT EVER HAPPENED, PART I AND PART II). THE STATE WANTS YOU TO PASS THIS TEST BEFORE YOU GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL. IT IS OUR JOB (YOURS AND MINE) TO SEE THAT YOU DO. SO, LETS MAKE THIS OUR GOAL FOR JUNE.
HERE ARE A COUPLE OF WEBSITES TO HELP YOU PREPARE FOR IT:

PAST NY STATE GLOBAL REGENTS EXAMS


SENIORS: THE STATE SAYS YOU MUST PASS PARTICIPATION IN GOVERNMENT BEFORE YOU CAN GRADUATE. THE STAKES ARE PRETTY HIGH FOR YOU. IT IS MY GOAL TO HAVE 100% SUCCESS FOR EACH OF MY CLASSES. THIS, TOO, REQUIRES SOME WORK ON YOUR PART. THE COURSE IS NOT ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT, BUT IT DOES DEMAND SOME OF YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION (AS IT SHOULD!) GOVERNMENT IS SOMETHING THAT EVERY ONE OF US NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND TO BE GOOD CITIZENS. MY JOB IS TO HELP YOU DO THAT!
