I was born • What shaped your life • What life changing events happened • Interesting facts • Fun stuff • Major Break news

  6. Understanding the Gregorian Calendar • Gregorian calendar, AKA: Western calendar • is internationally the most widely accepted and used civil calendar. • B.C.= Before Christ • This is a count down until the event of the birth of Christ • Meaning the bigger the number the further back in history you go. • Synonym= B.C.E=Before Common Era • B.C.E. means the same thing as B.C. and will be used interchangeable in this class

  7. AD/CE • A.D. Means Anno Domini • Synonyms= C.E.=Common Era • This is the Era we are currently in. • This Era we count up and every year accumulates, starting with year 1 and going to present day 2013.

  8. Centuries • Centuries are every 100 years • B.C./B.C.E again counting down • A.D./C.E. again counting up • Determining centuries can be confusing because you have to take in account 001 as first century. • Example BC/BCE • 001-99 BCE=1st Century BCE (each Century goes 100 years back in time) • Example AD/CE Centuries • 001-99= 1st Century • 100-199= 2nd Century

  9. How long ago • The rules. • RULE 1: • If you are in BC/BCE times you take the year it is in and add 2013 to it. • This will give you an idea of how long ago something happened. • Example: 2000 BC was 4013 years ago 2013 +2000 4013

  10. Rule 2 • Rule 2: • If you are in AD/CE times you will Subtract the date number by 2013. • Example: 1913 was one hundred years ago • 2013 -1913 100 years ago
