FEBRUARY 9th - 13th
Our midterm exam over Ancient Rome will be Thursday 2/12!
Assignments due this week:
Monday 2/9: Bring your completed "cleansed" notes to class for 50 points. Last week I assigned for you to "cleanse" your class notes by going through and picking out important items from 3 Categories: 1. Key People; 2. Key Places/Events 3. Key Terms/Phrases. For each entry, you should give a brief description of its importance to our study of Ancient Rome, beginning with the early monarchy and Rome's expansion through the end of your notes from last week.
IN ADDITION to cleansed notes being worth 50 points, those who have them completed Monday will be given the opportunity to take a short quiz worth 15 BONUS POINTS toward Thursday's test grade. So, if you get 10/15 bonus points on your quiz, this could potentially mean the difference between an 83% C and a 93% A.
TUESDAY 2/10 & Wednesday 2/11: Assuming there are no setbacks on Monday, we will spend Tuesday and Wednesday reviewing for the test!
Thursday 2/12: Test day!
Friday 2/13: Short class - Valentine's Day Class Parties

11/10/14 - 11/14/14
This week we will work on our Ancient Greece projects, and, in class, look at some of the details of each individual group's project.
I will be spending time with each group to help them focus their efforts in the right direction.
Once the projects are finished, we will have presentations, and will put them on display for the school to see!
10/27/2014 - 10/31/14
This week we will continue to study the Ancient Greeks! We will work through the chapter, and start planning a project that will show off the students' command of the content, as well as their artistic and creative abilities!
The project will take roughly 2 weeks of class time once it begins, and will be worth 150 points, replacing a test grade for this chapter.
We assigned categories last week, and the students will be picking out relevant information from lecture through the week.
