Chapter 4 PowerPoint on Japan

The following is a PowerPoint I created based on the beginning of chapter 4. http://www.scribd.com/doc/2021090/Japan-Geography-and-the-Edo-Period

Our Worldviews Text

I Thought I would include a copy of what our text looks like so parents are aware of what their child is using for this class. The 3 sections covered are the Renaissance, Japan, and the Spanish and Aztecs.

Comic Current Event

For this project students were to find an article in the newspaper and answer the 5 W's for the assignment; who, what, where, when, and why. They were then to create a 6-8 panel comic strip which recreates the article. The assignment is due on Friday February 1. It will be evaluated on a rubric that students have created in class.

Report Cards

Report Card #2 will be going home Friday February 1, 2008
