This week, the classes will be out of sync, on account of last week's field trip. We are ending the second unit, New Centers of Culture. The test for Unit II will be on Monday and Tuesday of next week, so students should begin studying NOW!!
Green Day
Monday: Arab Empire Webquest investigating Ibn Battuta, Mu'awiyah, and Ibn Sina. If students do not complete in class, they are to complete at home using provided print sources or online sources on blog.
Wednesday: Students will engage in an extended written response, where they write a creative letter from a Byzantine to an Arab scholar. This activity will be available as a bonus for White Day students.
Friday: TBD. We may have a Competitive History Jeopardy, a discussion of study strategies complete with handouts on how to use flashcards, a video learning extension, or a report out of student work.
