Emperors of the Roman Empire The Good * the Bad * and the Ugly
Shared Learning Target • I know that the Roman Empire was ruled by many emperors . • I will learn about some of the good and bad leaders by doing a mini research project with my group. • I will show what I know by creating one of the following : POSTER BOARD,PLAY WITH SCRIPT,SONG WITH LYRICS,BODY MAP,CIRCLE BOOK,POWER POINT WITH GRAPHICS or, NEWS REPORT and presenting it to the class.
Students will pick an emperor from a hat • In their groups students will work together through research (in comp. lab and classroom) in order to answer essential questions on their emperor • Students will then put the information together into a presentation • Be creative!! Some of these emperors are VERY interesting! • (3 days research, 1 day put together, 1 day present) Assignment
Students must keep a notebook/handout to track their work during research. Each group member should have questions to research and should write them down for a notebook/handout check each day. • Presentations must be between 10-15 minutes. No longer no less. • At the end of the presentations, students will write a 1 page reflection on their experience. Additional Info.
Here are the following choices for presenting your emperor: • POSTER BOARD • PLAY WITH SCRIPT • SONG WITH LYRICS • BODY MAP • CIRCLE BOOK • POWER POINT WITH GRAPHICS • NEWS REPORT • Each group will do 1 of the options. No option can be used twice. Students will get to choose option after discussion with their group. • DRESSING UP IS ALWAYS A BONUS (hint hint!) Presentation!!
