Hey 8th graders:
Just a reminder on the three assignments that are due on Monday:
1) Athens vs. Sparta Venn Diagram
-Remember that you need to have 5 pieces of information for each part of the Venn Diagram: 5 things about just Athens, 5 things about just Sparta, and 5 things they have in common (assigned over a week ago!)
2) Top-10 Greek "Firsts" List
-Create a ranked list (from 1-10) of the 10 Best Greek Firsts (inventions, ideas, actions, etc). Write 2+ sentences about each thing, explaining either why you ranked them that way or what they were (assigned on Thursday)
3) Alexander's Great-O-Meter
-Read about Alexander the Great and decide how "Great" you think he was. Represent this with some sort of visual (gas gauge, thermometer, etc). Then explain in a 5+ sentence paragraph why you feel that way. Remember, there is no wrong answer for this except not to do the assignment. If you think he was lame, it's ok to say that...just because history has labeled him as "Great" doesn't mean you have to agree! (But you do have to give good reasons why you disagree, hence the 5-sentence paragraph!)
If you have questions shoot me an e-mail or comment below!
Remember we'll review on Monday and your Ancient Greece Quiz is on Tuesday!!! :-D
