Global I - A schedule

Today we performed our Roman skits in class! After all of the presentations we briefly reviewed our unit on Rome. A study guide & worksheet was handed out in class. This will aid you in studying for the test on Monday, April 4. We will also have a binder check on Monday after the test.

Global I - A schedule

What attracted people of the Roman Empire to Christianity?

  To begin class we took notes along with a powerpoint to discover how the Roman Empire collapsed. We looked at a primary source about Attila the Hun and discussed his character in class. Then we completed a worksheet in class to reiterate the causes of Rome's collapse.
  For the remainder of class, we worked on our Roman skits & planned our Toga party for Wednesday, March 30. Remember, we will present our skits & review for our upcoming test. You may wear a "toga" over your usual uniform & bring something to eat to share with the class. Keep in mind, these skits replace an essay & make up 30% of your grade on the test!
  Feel free to email me if you have any questions about the project & upcoming test.

*If you were out of class due to the Freshman trip please come by & get the material you missed ASAP!
