Mrs. Burleson

Our focus this school year will be learning and developing our skills as critical thinkers, readers, writers, speakers, and listeners. The development and mastery of these important literary skills not only are important to achieving success in Language Arts and Social Studies, it is a critical component of achieving success in other school subjects, building strong relationships with others, and attaining a flourishing career as an adult. In social studies, we will study US and North Carolina history. We will start with colonization to go to contemporary US history.
