This week we will be completing our first of two review units on ancient history with an examination on Tuesday. Their purpose has been two-fold: 1) to ensure that you have a solid grounding in the most important aspects of ancient history, and 2) to introduce the skills required for the AP exam alongside content that you already have some familiarity with. I am very pleased with our progress on those fronts, and anticipate that our second unit will proceed more quickly than the first. Good luck on the exam - I know you will do well.
Looking ahead, we will proceed with a review of the period from 600-1450 CE. Our next writing assignment will be a change-over-time essay that I will hand out on Thursday and have due the following Monday.
Tuesday
- In-class: exam
- hand out: 2nd review packet
Thursday
- Read: review packet 2, pp 138-148.
- Due: first set of term ids (the ones on Europe)
- note-don't worry about defining the terms, just id the people, places & events
