If people had YouTube in 500 B.C.E. what do you think they would post videos of?
Summary of the YouTube video and class reading. Six or more sentences.
How did the ancient Romans deal with plumbing?
How did aqueducts work? Who was Hannibal? p. 155
Why do think Spartacus and his followers revolted? p.157 It’s 1000 years ago, and you are in charge of a large group of people who are trying to decide where to set up your new civilization. Your choice is between a nice river valley right between a few large, well-established civilizations or a secluded island far away from other civilizations. Which would you choose? Why that one? Think: water, food sources, defense, travel trade, culture. . .
And once you made your choice and explained why you chose that one, answer these questions: Does the place you live dictate the type of life you lead? How do you think geography shapes a society? What if you lived on an island 1000 years ago? Do you think you’d be different from a person who lived along a river valley? What were the main differences between the Patricians and the Plebeians? |
