Monday, Feb. 11

Today I discussed the prosperity during the Tang and Song dynasties which led to innovations and inventions. Students completed fill-in notes. Students then worked on a reading guide about the Tang and Song dynasties which will be due tomorrow. Students were then assigned a topic from this time period to research (Confucianism, Buddhism, Gunpowder, Wood block printing, Paper/paper money, the Compass, Porcelain). Students will research and create a short presentation about thier topic which includes a mock magazine ad for the topic they were assigned.
