Today, we finished the Greeks Book Project.  We yarned the pages together and turned them in.  Those finished early read Chapter 12 in advance of starting that chapter on Thursday/Friday.

Thurs/Fri 4/27 & 4/28

We began class with a discussion about where Chapter 11 left off.  Students listed what was happening in Greece around 500 B.C. in discussion groups.

Then, we took notes on the following worksheet using our textbook AND the Greeks Book.  When students finished these notes, they watched the following video.
