Homework: Later this week we will have a Socrative Seminar on the article by Mary Beard, "Why ancient Rome matters to the modern world." This is not an easy article. But it is rich and thoughtful. Everyone should try to read the whole article and make notes about questions you have. If you know nothing about the modern world it will be even harder than if you know even a little about the ancient world. Try not to get frustrated and give up. Make notes on what you do understand and what catches your interest/curiosity, as well as what you do not comprehend.
Together we will be able to draw more meaning from the article than a single person can.
I will be assigning 1-3 paragraphs to different groups in the class for close reading and presentation in the format of a Socrative Seminar.
Homework: Review your notes and today's blog.
Homework. Practice this Quizlet set on useful classroom words and phrases.
