Test Review and Posterous

Over the weekend, you should review for the test.  The test will be on the Post-Classical Era, chapters 13-17 inclusive.  There will be 60 multiple choice questions on the test.  As part of the review, each table group, formed today, is to make a jeopardy review game using www.jeopardylabs.com.  If you were absent today due to leadership training, you are free to make your own game.  Once you have the game made, please paste the link to the game on the google document linked here so we can all find them in class on Monday, when they will be played.

As we are at the end of the Post-Classical Era, there is another Posterous assignment that is due.  This assignment will be due by the end of the school day on Thursday, December 22, and you will have time in class on Thursday to complete it.  In short, you are to find a metaphorical image that represents the societies we have studied in the Post-Classical Era.  Details are posted on the Posterous class space.  Please note that, as this is our third time through this assignment, you will no longer be given leeway if you post to your own space, or otherwise incorrectly post the assignment.  Assignments that are not properly located by the deadline will receive a 0, even if you post it to your own space.  Finally, you must have a picture of yourself uploaded to your account by Thursday as well; this will also be a homework assignment grade.

Lastly, there will be a book report that will be due on Thursday, January 5th.  It will follow the same format as the Thanksgiving book report, in that you have the choice of a fiction or non-fiction book, and the assignment is to compose a review of the book that matches up with the requirements delineated in the rubric linked here.  The list of books you may read is linked here; please feel free to add in a review in the form of stars (5 stars for excellent, 1 star for burn it) next to the book you read the last time to help each other make a choice. Please do not add or remove books!!
