Who's Who

We reconnected after a 4-day break today. I distributed grade sheets to students who did not have parents visit with me at conferences.  As noted, there will be a project for students earning less than a C at Winter Break who may want to pass the class.

There was a group task to think of people/groups we have learned about in class so far and indicate which civilization to which each belonged and the importance/relevance of each as well.  These are the people:  Achilles, Alexander, Athenians, Buddha, Hammurabi, Hatshepsut, Hindus, Lucy, Moses, Persians (Xerxes), Phillip II, Phoenicians, Plato., Socrates, Spartans (Leonides), Tut

I collected the Greece Maps (Mediterranean World, Greece, Alexander's Empire) as well, after going over the questions on the back of the Alexander map.

Do not forget about the Plato essay due tomorrow.  A hard copy must be in my possession at the start of class.
