Rome's Internal Weakness

Good Morning Travelers,

  1. Please get out your homework: "In your Interactive Notebook -- Describe Rome's internal weaknesses (be sure to look up Rome's use of slavery, it's lack of education, split of the empire, and more)" 
  2. I'll walk around and check your work.
  3. While I'm walking around using post-it notes write down Rome's internal weaknesses. One weakness per post-it.
  4. Stick the notes on the Inspiration wall.
  5. On the next page in your Interactive Notebook Describe Rome's strengths and the cool things they accomplished -include the art, architecture, law, engineering, and more.
  6. Time to travel blog- after you've looked up something great that Rome accomplished find out where it happened. Write a blog post about traveling to the location where the Roman accomplishment happened. Include in your post: description of location (and map), description of Roman achievement (and image of the achievement). Add a personal touch as to why you think it is a great accomplishment.
  7. Let's watch some more Colosseum: A Gladiators Story

Homework: Finish your travel blog post (see #6 above). And come up with 3 different project ideas you would like to do that covers: Rome's strengths and weaknesses. The project should talk about what Rome is famous for and the reasons leading to it's collapsehttp://wps.ablongman.com/wps/media/objects/262/268312/art/figures/KISH_06_131.gif
