12/15 and 12/16 5th and 4th Period AP World

We took notes on the first half of Chapter 14.  Students need to finish reading chapter 14 before next class and research the cathedral they were assigned in class.  For homework they need to bring a small picture of their cathedral and a paragraph of information about the cathedral, history, etc.  This does not need to be super indepth.  The goal of this activity is just to reinforce Gothic Arch.

Update for 5th period AP only

There are a couple of confusing things on the chapter 12 charts.  Because I was absent yesterday I am granting an extension on the charts.  Bring them to class tomorrow so I can explain a couple of things with them.  They will be collected Monday for a grade.  Still a possible reading quiz Friday!
P.S. Feel free to shower me with candy.

12/3 and 12/4 5th and 4th Period

Students took their chapter 8-11 test today.  After the test they were given two charts and 30 minutes in class to work on them.  The students need to turn the chapter 12 charts in for a homework grade next class.  The students also need to read pages 341-359 before next class.  Possible reading quiz.
