=Welcome to Gilligansclass....the wiki for Mr. Gilligan's Global Studies and U.S. History classes.=

We will all have the chance to share our learning about the world or the United States through this wikispace. Don't be afraid to share your thoughts and ideas but remember to always be respectful in what you write. That way this wikispace can be a peaceful, welcoming community.

In Global Studies we will learn about various topics such as Native American legends, China, India, Africa, Brazil, Mexico, Australia, etc. You will gain much experience in writing this year. The goal is for you to pass the CAPT writing test during your 10th grade year.

In U.S. History we will learn about various topics such as the American Revolution, California Gold Rush, Civil War, Immigration (Past and Present), 1920s, etc. You will gain much experience in writing and public speaking this year. Also, this U.S. History class is part of EASTCONN's Waves of History Program: Windham students and students from other schools such Plainfield High School will participate in various FREE field trips to learn more about immigration.

Look at the discussion topics on the left side. Share what's on your mind!
