ASC EH, Hours 1 and 4
AGENDA (HW): Chart due FRIDAY
Today is the only in-class work day for this, so use your time wisely.
I expect a lot of detail for each person. :)
LT: Analyze the factors that contribute to a stable government.
FOCUS: Describe how Egypt geography has shaped the people's lives.
Today, you will work on the Important People Chart for the Cleopatra novel. Below are websites I have gathered for you. Use these websites to complete information about each historical figure on your chart (Description and Culture with which associated columns).
You will NOT complete the column entitled Importance to the Novel today. You will complete that section as you read the novel.
