Humanities 8

Happy Monday,

Great job with your Code Orange work. Part A of student's independent work, which includes a cover page, plot summary, and character descriptions, was due last Friday. If you have not completed this work, or had trouble with our school computers, please see me. Part B (core work) work is ongoing. Students are to choose assignments from each of the four categories: vocabulary (1), writing (2), character(2), and drama/speaking/listening (2). This is independent work with a deadline of December 13th.

During class this week, students will be studying the Fall of the Roman Empire. We have completed notes on facts and have read pages 26-31 in Across the Centuries. Students were given a mapping assignment on Friday and will have time to complete their work in class today. Unfinished maps are due this coming Wednesday. We have also completed notes on Roman accomplishments and will be making a poster focusing on those accomplishments. Students must have six accomplishments listed and at least two drawings that depict the accomplishment.

Have a great week!
