Ms. Garrard's 8th Grade Social Studies
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! This is my fourth year at Whitworth-Buchanan Middle School. I am Ms. Hannah Garrard. I enjoy reading, writing, watching anime, playing video games and anything related to history. I teach motorcycle safety in my free time and travel across the country (or just around town) on my Harley. I am from Memphis, Tennessee and lived in Murfreesboro for a few years now. I love the community of Murfreesboro and surrounding areas. I have my Bachelors from the University of Memphis in History and my Masters in Education from Middle Tennessee State University. My goal this year is show my students the adventurous side of History. I hope we all have a great year together!
MAKE UP WORK: On Clever, each unit's PowerPoint are labeled. You can highlight the chapters you missed the days you are absent. Please email me anytime you are absent and I will tell you what pages you missed from the book. It is your responsibility to email me about missing work. Do not hesitate to email me about any questions you have about missing work. I will make sure you have everything and are caught up in the three days of each absent.
