Thursday and Friday's Objectives:
Friday's Task:
Read Chapter 8: "The Roman Republic" and complete the 2-column notes in your journal. This will be formatively assessed by Mrs. Stewart at the end of next week (we will take handwritten notes of Chapters 8 and 9). Use the suggested outline for your notes provided in the 2-Column Notes Template (linked below). For this task, notes must be taken in your journal--not digitally on laptop. If you don't know why I ask you to hand write your notes, please read the articles linked above.
Reminder that G-SPICE digital notes are due by the beginning of class next Tuesday. You will have a short formative quiz on the Roman Empire on Tuesday!
