TAKS Jeopardy can be found at http://bit.ly/8YubGS. Remember, TAKS Jeopardy is just a review of some of the basic concepts that have historically showed up on the 10th Grade Social Studies TAKS Test. Use this in conjuction with Mr. Brenner's Handy Dandy Guide to Passing TAKS to prepare for the TAKS Test at the end of April.

Brenneronline BETA

Brenneronline.com is growing up.  This website was originally created five years ago when I began my student-teaching at Greenville High School and has been repurposed serveral times depending upon my specific teaching duties.  As a result, many of the features that were built back then were very advanced at that times (thanks to help from a friend who is a Computer Scientist).  However, those state-of-the-art features are now obsolete by today's standards and are begging to be upgraded and changed.  For the next few weeks I will be updating my website to use more of the new features.  Let me know if you see any problems.  

World War I Projects

World War I Political Cartoon Projects are due on Friday, March 12, 2010 at the beginning of class.  I will NOT accept any late projects.  If you begin Spring Break early then the projects will be due upon your return.  If you have any questions about the project please do not hesitate to ask.
