Vacation Homework

Over the vacation, as you ponder whether or not you are still actually alive or if the world has ended and you are living in a matrix-like simulation, you should complete another book/movie project.  Choose a non-fiction or fiction book from the list posted here, or select a non-fiction or fiction film (be sure to run it by me first) and complete the assignment linked up here.  Remember that you must complete at least two of these assignments as non-fiction, and you may only do a total of two films out of the four options, so plan ahead if you know that either February or April vacations will be tough to complete. The rubric is linked up here.

If you are interested, Newsweek ran an article about the search for Genghis Khan's tomb last week.  The article is linked up here.

In addition, you should read chapter 17 in the textbook.  We will not discuss it, as it is focused on Europe, but it is an important pre-cursor to the later chapter on Europe (chapter 20) that we will discuss!  We come back to Sub-Saharan Africa in 2013!

Enjoy the break! We hit the ground running when we get back...
