Types of ancient Greece Governments
Tuesday in class Mr. Hogue's class began work in chapter 26 which is on governments in ancient Greece. They experienced two government simulations. The governments of monarchy and oligarchy were demonstrated and students read and began completing the interactive notebook page 172 (26.2 and 26.3). Mrs. Cobb's class completed the vocabulary word wall and gallery walk for the terms in chapter 26.
Be sure to practice your longitude and latitude coordinate work in preparation for Friday's retake test. We also practiced a couple of coordinates to locate world cities.
If you are retaking the test Friday, you need to have ready and completed the retake practice sheet for tomorrow. The whole completed sheet is due on Friday.
I have included a link to a practice sheet for longitude latitude on which you place your responses and it grades them automatically.
