We will be reviewing a copy of the rubric you will be using to create your Travel Google Slide Presentation for your Asian Dynasty/Empire, and we will review the sample of a Travel Slide Presentation that I made to give you an idea of what is expected. You will have three days to complete your presentation. Remember, you are a travel agent, and are trying to encourage your classmates to take a trip to your dynasty/empire by the words and pictures you use while staying true to the time period facts, rulers and culture. Turn in your Travel Slide Presentation before 3:00 pm on Friday.

Good Morning!

Here is you Google Class code:

Today, if you have turned in your notes, you can start working on your attached Google Fact Slides for your chosen Asian Dynasty/Empire. Much of this information can be found in your notes, however, some of you have limited information in the textbook and will need to complete much more research on line. Fill out information for every category from your notes first. Then, go online to find the additional missing information. Make sure you put the page number for the information from your textbook and the full website url for the additional information. You will need to cite these sources in your slide presentation later on in the week. Review my copy of the completed Google Fact Slides regarding the British Empires Thirteen Colonies as a guide. If you have any questions after we meet, please email me. The slides are due on Tuesday at 3:00 pm. If you finish it today, please email so that I can check it. We will be meeting on Wednesday for the next phase of the project. This is an assessment grade.

Hello!

Here is your Google Meet code:

Please have a printed copy of the Asian Dynasty/Empire choices slide or have it open on your computer when we talk so that we may review it together. After your selection of your topic is approved, you must complete the notes by 3:00 pm today, Friday. On Monday we will meet and I will go over the rubric/document that you will be required to fill out and a sample of a completed rubric and slide presentation so that you can see what I am expecting.

Good Morning!

Please use the Google Slide notes, and your textbook pages RA20-23 to answer these questions. It would be best to print this out, follow the directions with the appropriate colors and written responses, and take a picture of it to turn it in. Make sure you double check that you completed your work, and only label or carefully circle the countries mentioned. Do not circle or color other countries that are not part of what is required. This is due by 3:00 pm today.

Later today, I will send a list of potential project choices for your next assessments/presentations. We will meet on Friday and I will pull cards to determine which topic you will be studying. After you have selected your Asian dynasty or empire of choice on Friday, you will be completing the reading and notes by 3:00 pm. Next week you will be completing a rubric on a Google Document stating where you received your information regarding your dynasty or empire, AND a slide presentation encouraging your classmates to visit your dynasty or empire. I will give you an example on Monday so that you can see what I am expecting.

Good Morning!

Attached please find the Inca and Aztec Assessment. You will have 40 minutes to complete your assessment. When you have finished, please turn it in.

Have a wonderful and safe Easter with your family!

Attached, please find the Incan slides and map.
Print them out before we meet tomorrow, Tuesday, during 4th period.

You will be turning in only your completed map. It is due by 3:00 pm on Tuesday, April 7th.

I will be sending the Google Meet code tomorrow around 9:55 am.

Have a good evening!

Good Morning!

We will be studying the Incan Empire for the next four days. Please take notes from the textbook from p. 463-465. Start at The Inca heading and stop just before the North American Peoples heading.

After your notes, and on a fresh sheet of notebook paper, write what is unique to the Incan people and what is similar between the Inca culture and Aztec culture. Some examples to consider would be: where they lived; their social class pyramid; their religion and how they practiced it, and how they communicated. If it helps, draw a venn diagram or chart to show the similarities or differences between the Inca and the Aztec under your Incan notes.

Please turn in your notes and your diagram/chart when you have finished.

I will also be available on Google Meet today at our regularly scheduled time at 10:00 - 10:15 am if you have any questions. If you can't make it at that time, please feel free to email me at [email protected] with any questions.

I will be sending you a map and fill in the blank notesheets this evening. Please print them out as we will be using those for a Google Meet session on Tuesday.

Also, please check your grades. If you are missing work, please complete it, and send me an email so that I may grade it and enter it into the grade book.

Have a great day!

Good Morning,

You will be writing a paragraph for your Mayan and Aztec Assessment during our regularly scheduled class time, between 10:00-10:40 am. You can use your Mayan and Aztec Reviews, notes and notesheets/slides during the assessment.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Good Morning!

Here is your Google Meet code:

https://meet.google.com/snc-yaxr-gfb

Please make sure you have your printed Aztec Google Slides, a pen, and a loose-leaf piece of paper if you need to write the answers on a separate piece of paper because you do not have a printed copy of your slides. It would also be helpful for you to have your Mayan and Aztec map out because we will complete #6 together.
Please mute your microphone before entering.

After we review these 10 slides and the Chinampa video, please complete #1-7 of the attached Aztec Review and turn it in by 3:00 pm.

See you soon!

Good Morning! I hope you had a good Spring Break with your family!

Today, please watch the Ancient Maya video and pay particular attention to the map in the video and to the names of the current day countries where the ancient Mayans lived.
Then, print and complete the map, lightly shading where the Mayas lived, and label the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, #'s 1-5 on the map.
After, complete the answers to the attached Mayan Review sheet.
Send me pictures of your completed Mayan map and review sheet when you have finished.

Please read p.459-461 in your textbook and take notes about the ancient Mayan civilization. Please add the Mayan location to your map of North America
in Mesoamerica. The Mayan were found primarily on the Yucatan peninsula (see p.455) in current day Cancun, Mexico. Take a picture of your notes and send it to me on Google Classroom.
Your assignment is due by 3:00 pm

Good Morning,

As I read your descriptions/journeys across the Americas, I noted some common issues that need to be addressed.
Many of you need to review cardinal and intermediate directions. I will give several examples here and
then you will respond to the prompt below and turn in your understanding of where one location in the American
civilizations that we studied is located in relation to another.

If I record a

+ and then create an x, I might want to know how to travel from the + to the x.

So, I would state that the x is east of the +, or in other words, if I began at the +, I would need to travel east to get to the x. Please note that when looking at a blank screen or map, unless stated otherwise, it is assumed that North is located at the top of the page, East is located to the right, South is located at the bottom of the screen and West is located to the left. See the compass rose and other examples on the attached Google Doc.

Your goal is to use the following early American civilizations: Cahokia, Anasazi, Hohokam, Olmec, Moche, and Zapotec and create four different travel plans using two of the early civilizations for each trip. For example, if I wanted to travel from Cahokia to the Anasazis, you would write: If I started at Cahokia, I must travel Southwest until I reach the Anasazi location. You can not use that example, but must combine the early civilizations above to come up with proper directions to travel. Use your maps and insert a compass rose on your Google Doc. Then write your four examples of how you would travel from one early American civilization to another. You can only use a particular civilization twice in your examples. (You can not start with the Anasazis for all four examples).

If you have any questions, please email me at [email protected].

Please turn this in by 3:00 pm.

Have a super, terrific and fantastic day!

Good morning, and welcome to the second day, Tuesday, of E-Learning,

If your last name begins with an A-M, this is your prompt for the Test:
Pretend you are traveling from the east coast of North America to the west coast of America.
Explain the geography (land forms and bodies of waters that you learned about during our
NA & SA unit) and climate that you would encounter plus specifics about two of the early civilizations that you
saw on your travels to the opposite coast. Write in narrative form using the word "I".
Please turn in your Google Doc titled 6A, your name, NA & SA Geo Test; do not share it with me.

If your last name begins with a N-Z, this is your prompt for the Test:
Pretend you are traveling from the farthest point in North America to the farthest point south in South
America's islands. Explain the geography (land forms and bodies of waters that you learned about during
our NA & SA unit) and climate that you would encounter, plus specifics about two Mesoamerican civilizations
that you saw on your travels on your way to the tip of the South American coast. Write in narrative form using the word "I".
Please turn in your Google Doc titled 6A, your name, NA & SA Geo Test; do not share it with me.

Remember, this is due by 3:00 pm today.

Have fun and be creative with this activity!
