This year I am taking World History with Mr. Minnocci. Mr. Minnocci teaches world history and other classes pertaining to history. http://wood-ridge.schoolwires.net/Domain/174 (teacher's website) The main focus of world history is to learn about the world's history over thousands of years. The first topic we learned is the Renaissance.(Renaissance Music) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD_wZLpaVPg

The grading policy used is for general social studies classes.

• 30% Summative Assessments
• 30% Performance Based Assessments
• 20% Classwork (Including Class Participation)
• 20% Homework 

I expected to learn many things about the world the first class. I find his class interesting because I find that history is interesting and he teaches well. Technology is used in his class. Just recently, every room in the school got a cart of chromebooks. He also takes advantage of using his iPad to show pictures or presentations on what we are learning in class.
