World History

Students added to their EQ and CQ pages as we discussed our way through a slideshow about Judaism.  We rewatched a portion of the intro to the UN Human Rights DVD that we viewed at the start of the school year -- to revisit the section about Cyrus the Great in light of our recent Judaism studies and preview of Empires Unit to come next.  Check-mark the Judaism items in the "Outline of Popular Details" that we've covered and add to your CQ page any remaining questions you have about Judaism.  Finally, review briefly the world map (Eastern Hemisphere view) on which is noted the location and date of origination of the five religions for the unit.  On Monday we begin our study of Christianity.
