Mr.Z's+World+History+Page


 * Hello everyone! Welcome to Mr. Zietlow's World History wiki page. Each unit we will have assignments to do and article to read through out the year. The assignments will either be handed in class or posted to this page so that all the people in the class can see what is written. I will be giving reminders to all students when to check this page for assignments and due dates, but the responsibility comes down to the students to check the page. I also will post extra articles or videos about material that won't be covered in class. I hope students find this material interesting and it helps with their academic development Have Fun!**

OK guys we have ended our unit! I would like to do an activity that will tie in everything we have learned about. Tomorrow we will break into groups and you guys will be responsible for creating your own civilization. I want all groups to come up with - name of tribe - location - what resources you will be using - any conflicts ( with other tribes or civilization) - punishment ( your rules)


 * In class tomorrow all groups will be working on their civilization. The following day all groups will be expected to give us a 2-3 min presentation on their civilization ( presentation won't be graded)**
