AIM: I will successfully plot dates on a Gregorian timeline using the bow tie timeline.
Standard: Plotting Major events on time lines and in chronological order.
Do Now:
1) What does BCE mean?
2) What does CE mean?
3) What does BC mean?
4) What does AD mean?
Lesson Steps:
We reviewed yesterday's homework and then went into an activity that asked students to determine when certain events happened. Students had to add or subtract to determine how long ago certain dates happened. For example, how many years ago was the Rosetta Stone created?
We then did a group activity in the hall in which students had to place cards in chronological order, paying attention to dates in CE and BCE. We ended class by reading an excerpt and creating a timeline using the dates from today's reading.
Homework: Complete questions 1-5 on the back of today's handout.
