During our "Going Greek" phase, students selected a Greek name, learned about their polis by creating their own city-state banner, and explored Greek gods and goddess. Throughout the simulation, they will be presented with challenges where they can earn points. The city-state with the most points at the end is crowned the winner.</div><div><br /></div><div>Enjoy the slideshow below on....</div>Challenge #1-Creating Greek statues for their city-state Patron god or goddess<div><br /></div></div>Hugentoblerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12326390010831238676noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384169813444095462.post-43317179213419033812009-12-14T11:05:00.001-05:002009-12-14T11:06:39.224-05:00Going Greek: Challenge #1- Greek Statues<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 9px; white-space: pre-wrap; "><div><embed src="http://widget-a0.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=3026418949631948704&site=widget-a0.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3026418949631948704&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-a0.slide.com/p1/3026418949631948704/bb_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3026418949631948704&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-a0.slide.com/p2/3026418949631948704/bb_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3026418949631948704&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-a0.slide.com/p4/3026418949631948704/bb_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div></span>Hugentoblerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12326390010831238676noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384169813444095462.post-78010593044117877252009-11-21T16:57:00.001-05:002009-11-21T17:00:08.137-05:00Geography of Greece<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; font-size: small; ">Students first chose settlement sites in a simulated landscape (chairs as mountains/ blue tape mapped out the coastline) of ancient Greece to understand the influence of geography on settlement and culture.

Students survived their first "Hugentobler" test and spent the rest of the day celebrating the end of our China unit. They tried their hand at chopsticks and those that mastered the skill enjoyed using them during our Chinese buffet lunch. The students created Chinese paper cutting decorations and tried to beat their fellow classmates at Chinese Checkers. Catalina proved to be the 7th grade champ at Manjong and Kevin was the master of all Chinese skills. Thanks to all the parents who helped make it a great day. Thanks to all the students for having fun with it. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;">Coming Soon....
