Today I passed out a study guide to help students for the test Friday (see below). Students worked to constuct an explain and describe paragraph about the Legacies of Rome that we discussed last week.
Once that paragraph is complete students will finish their iMovie project using that paragraph. The final film project will contain 3 elements. A segment about the Roman Republic, a segment about the Roman Empire and one about the legacies of Ancient Rome.

Here is the study guide:

On a Map you will need to be able to identify:
