We have completed our research papers and will start the week with Renaissance Day! In order to be prepared for this, you will need to write down a few facts and highlights about your person on a notecard. You may also dress as the person whom you have been researching. Buying costumes is not necessary as you have been provided with ideas to create your own out of clothing you may already have at home. Your Renaissance "group" has decided on food items to bring for your group. Remember, you only need to bring food and/or supplies for your group.
You will also need to either join my group on www.quizlet.com to get the flash cards to prepare for the CRCT or create your own. The lists below show the terms and definitions you must learn. We will have a quiz on Friday to determine if you have mastered these terms. Here's the plan for the week:
