Halloween - boooo!

Scariest thing I can think of: an in class compare and contrast essay!  The topic will be the collapse of the Han Dynasty and the collapse of the Roman Empire.  Be sure you review the scoring guides!

AND

The extra credit opportunity is still on, regardless of the town's plans for Halloween.  Come to class in costume as a historically significant figure and get 3 points on the quiz! (that's 3 points up to a 100%--I can't offer more as Aspen doesn't like it when I do that and it freaks out...so maximum is 20/20.)

A costume must be more than a baseball cap, or a headband, but it does not have to be a full out rental costume either!  Be creative and cheap! You only have to wear it in class, but don't do something that you plan to put on during class--you will lose time on the essay if you do that!
