I Can Almost Taste the Turkey!

Thanksgiving is almost here, which means that I can almost taste the turkey and all the fixin's...It also means you will enjoy a week of NO homework from your mean ol' teacher who has driven you all like Egyptian slaves under the taskmasters of old...Keep in mind we will leave for Gettysburg on Mon the 19th at 9 am from Bishop Cummins...For this week, I would like you to go to the site below on Ancient Greece and over the next week read three entries under each of the eight main sections on the homepage...Tell me BRIEFLY what you learned and what interested you the most in your readings for that day...You may do as much or as little as you want each day, as long as you have read three entries under each heading and written your summaries by next Monday night the 19th at midnight...Starting on the 20th, you are not allowed to do any World History HW until you return to class on the 26th - that is an order - you have earned the break! Enjoy it - lol :)

PS - For your info, there are two excellent links at the bottom of the web site which take you to some amazing pictures of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the D-Day landings in France during WW II - Check them out if you are interested - :)
