World History

Students set up a new note page they titled "Finals" onto which they made notes as needed as we reviewed the content of the final exam.  Hook this onto your packet of study materials as another review and clarifying item, and keep your study materials in a safe place to use, again, for the final exam in May -- that exam will be cumulative.  We checked in on our Mental Map Timeline and discussed why the World Religions unit is placed at this time in our curriculum and clarification was given that this topic is essential to understanding urban and imperial human history; it is an academic study of the basic content of major world religions.  (Individual philosophies and spiritual beliefs are personal prerogatives for each student, and that right and freedom is respected as a private matter and personal boundary.)  We set up our new E.Q. and C.Q. pages -- please collaborate with me or a reliable classmate for the set up and for the clarifying explanation on the E.Q.s
