Week One – I know what A primary source is
1st – independently search for primary sources
2nd – choose topic about Ancient Rome
3rd – use Mrs. Robbins’ websites to choose two primary source documents about my topic (one document must be words and the other an image)
Week two – I found two primary sources about my topic
1st – Find and really read the two documents that you chose so that you really understand what the document is and what it can tell us about Ancient Rome.
2nd – Copy and paste your two documents on two MS Word pages. Remember one document must be words and one must be an image related to your topic. To eventually print you must copy and paste the document onto a MS Word page and include the web address from where you found the document.
3rd – Create one question for each document that can be answered by looking at and reading the documents you chose. Type this question on your MS Word page that the document is on. Your questions should focus on the main idea of the document. Think about, “What does this document tell me about my topic?” and write your question based on what the document reveals about Ancient Rome.
4th – Ask Mrs. Robbins to look at your MS Word pages and, once approved, print them.
Week Three – I have designed a replica about my topic
1st – Design on paper how you want your replica to look. Thing about how your design will really model Ancient Roman culture. Use your documents and other websites or your textbook to help with the details that must be included in your design. Your design must have at least 5 specific details related to your topic.
2nd – Decide what materials you will need in order to build your design and make a list of those materials.
3rd – Show your design and list of materials to Mrs. Robbins for approval.
Week Four – I have created a replica about my topic
1st & last – Build your replica, carefully incorporating the details in your design.
Week five – I have designed a title card that explains my replica
1st – Write the title of your replica on an index card (What is it?)
2nd – Write five facts about your replica listing neatly the details that make it really related to Ancient Roman culture. Try to answer: What was it used for? How was it used? Why was it important to Ancient Romans? What details did you include in your model to make it a good replica?
3rd – Display your replica, title card, and primary source documents with questions in Mrs. Robbins’ classroom.
