Sorry it has been a few days since I’ve posted.
We started ancient China last week. We started on a map of China with the main physical features. This was due last Friday. This is found on pgs. 198-199. Here is the map:

We started chapter 21 on Monday. This is about 3 philosophies of ancient China (Confucianism, Daoism, and Legalism). Each one we learn about it through a class simulation. Students were to read the sections and complete the notes (skipping section 2). Here are the reading notes for chapter 21 (we just finished section 5 today):
Chapter 21 illustrated dictionary was passed out on Tuesday. This will be due on Monday:

QUIZ ON MONDAY
There will be a short quiz on chapter 21 on Monday. Students will have to know the terms from chapter 21 as well as the map from earlier (see above). Students will need to know the physical features and where to locate them on a map of China (Huang He river, Chang Jiang river, East China Sea, Himalaya mountains, etc..). They can use the maps I gave back to them as study guides, or they can use their book to study.
Thank you
