Today in class all of you got a piece of paper that looks like this :
Your task tonight is to take the two maps of Persia in chapter 7 of the textbook, and compile them into one hand-drawn (freehand) map that fits on this piece of paper. Once you have drawn the map, upload a picture of it into your blog and tag/label it with "Persia" and "Map." (This will help you later when you are trying to find your posts about different topics to help you study. You should always tag your blog posts. Last night's should get tags like: religions, ancient society, Zoroastrianism, etc.) You aren't being graded on your artistic ability, nor do I expect you to be a cartographer. I'm looking for you to get the general location of the empires, the names of major cities, regions, and rivers, and the Royal Road's location and span. It should be neat and legible, but does not need to be ready for publication by Rand McNally...
Your essay re-writes are due at the start of class on Monday. You may type the re-write or hand write it, either is fine. You may use the book, notes, etc. when you re-write. When you hand in the re-write, it must be accompanied by the original essay and question sheet. Be mindful of the fact that a re-write doesn't mean re-copy, it means start it again. Most of you don't have much to work from anyway, but since you will be changing your thesis, evidence that you used before may or may not be relevant again! Follow the score guide, and look over what we talked about today! The presentation is linked up here if you want to review it while you write.
