Thanksgiving Break is approaching fast - But there is still work to be done. Let's review what's coming up this week AND the work you'll be assigned over the break to complete.
Tuesday: It's Debate Day! Students will enter class and draw which "team" they are participating in the Justinian Debate with - either the affirmative team, the negative team, or the jury. After the debate is done, students will have a quick exit ticket to complete via Google Forms to reflect on what they learned and their own argument for the debate.
Wednesday: Today's class will be spent doing some Peer Reviews and Edits of our DBQ we wrote last Thursday. Students will highlight, add comments and suggestions to a peer's essay, and share them with the student before it is turned in for me to grade. Please make sure you have your highlighters with you to use for this activity.
Thursday: Today in class we will be working on some guided notes for the Middle Ages in Europe, specifically Feudalism/Manorialism, the Byzantine Empire, and the Division of Christianity.
Friday: Classes today will be working on an activity titled the "Crusades Dinner Party" - students will research key members/leaders of the Crusades and try to place/arrange a successful dinner party where all of these members would be invited it. This simulation is important for not only recognizing major figures/leaders of the Crusades, and the disagreements that are apart of the conflict, but students will be practicing researching skills and problem-solving/critical thinking skills.
In order to keep our minds sharp, and not lose ground in our study, students have three assignments to work on over the holiday break. These assignments and their materials are all located in one folder in Schoology for easy access:
