Hi,
You will practice for our exam over the vacation.
I read this from yahoo answers.com and
1. Create a list that CONTRASTS Rome's government with our own.
2. Write one paragraph about the differences between the two governments (contrasts).
II. Now find your own source on the internet that helps you COMPARE the two governments.
1. Create a list that conpares the two governments
2. Write one paragraph that shows how they are similar (COOMPARES).
III. Go to http://regentprep.org and practice for next week's exam using the practice multiple choice questions.
Bring in your paragraphs and your two lists on January 3 when we come back.
