This week you will be doing research on Ancient Civilizations.
Today, you will begin doing research on your topic. First, Ms. Liemthongsamout’s students will be comparing two different ancient civilizations. If you are in Mr. Kurtzman’s class, you will be answering a question that you developed about an ancient civilization.
If you forgot what you would be researching that is here for Mr. Kurtzman’s class, and here for Ms. Liemthongsamount.
What you should do today? You will go to one of the resources you get from links I, and others, have gathered, and find a paragraph to summarize or paraphrase (that means to put it in your own words and shorten it). You will copy and paste the paragraph in the comment box below, then BELOW the paragraph, you will put what it says in your own words. You will also copy the URL (the link at the top) from the page you go to and paste that in your comment.
Resources:
Please start exploring about the the question or civilization you will be writing a research paper on. Go here to do your reading, and leave a comment with three sentences about what you’ve learned.
If you forgot what you would be researching that is here for Mr. Kurtzman’s class, and here for Ms. Liemthongsamount.
