Was Alexandar "Great"? Video

Hello! Hope you were able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weekend! Students continued to explore the question, was Alexander "great"? We further discussed character traits of both good and bad leaders. Students began taking notes from a video about Alexander. In their notes, they were recording events or facts about Alexander's life that reveal his character. They will add to their notes the next few days creating a single piece of paper that has evidence from three different sources: the video, the textbook, and several primary sources. In the end for the assessment essay, they will be able to write an essay that supports their opinions.
