March 28-April 1, 2011

AIMS week is April 11-15, 2011

I have maintained a policy all year and my students are aware of it; NO NAME, NO GRADE.
Students need to make sure they put their name on EVERY paper, especially tests.

This week we will be focusing on the fall of the Roman Empire. Our lessons come from chapter 10, and we will be supplementing with outside material. Students will create a time line and post cards from the different areas.

*REMINDER*
The 4th quarter project is due 4/28/2011. Late projects WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Below are the project requirements.

Students will self-select an early or ancient culture/civilization and create a poster representing that culture. ANY culture that we have studied this year (through the post Roman Europeans) is acceptable. A map of the area where the culture resided must be part of the poster. Examples of art work, writing styles, poetry and other important aspects of the culture should be included. Poster must include the name of the culture/civilization along with a notation of what chapter in the SS the civilization is discussed.
