Test Correction & Intro to Rome

On Friday 23rd, Sept. we took time to correct our test and do pass backs for the unit we just completed. We then began our look at Rome witha  video. If you were absent, you will need to do the following to make up waht you missed:

1) If you were here for the test last time, please check Skyward for your grade. You may do test corrections as needed for the next two weeks after that whatever score you have is the score you have - including 0s!

2) If you were not here for the test and you were gone again today, you need to schedule a time to make up your test ASAP. You have five school days from your return to do so without penalty. You must also turn in your green notes sheets from the previous unit. You should have 5 of them.

3) Please come in and pick up all your pass back work from the previous unit. Do NOT throw away anything until you check your grades on Skyward. If you believe there is an error we need to take care of that ASAP and you will need to provide evidence.

4) Watch the following video clip. After you watch the clip take a piece of paper and choose three adjectives you would use to describe the Romans. For each adjective think of at least two specific examples that could be used (at least one for each adjective has to come from the video) to support your choice and explain why you chose those adjectives. Your total writing for this assignment should be at least 1/2 a page but no more than 1 page.

IMPORTANT: You only need to watch first 25 mins!!!
