I took the first few minutes of class today to talk about the map of Egypt that students worked on in class on Wednesday. There was some confusion about the first Nile cataract, Aswan, and Lake Nasser which I think I was able to clear up. Many students turned the map in to me before leaving but others were given until class tomorrow (Friday) to turn it in.
Tomorrow we will take some time to practice the map of Africa in preparation for our quiz on Tuesday of next week. We will also begin the second vocabulary sheet for this unit.
I am willing to give extra credit points to students who give a presentation on any of the following pre-approved topics (presentations should be between 3-6 minutes) and must be done before the end of the unit.
Places:
Lake Nasser
Aswan Dam
Cairo
Alexandria
People:
Gamal Abdel Nasser
Muhammed Hosni Mubarak
Mohammed Anwar El-Sadat
Zahi Hawass
If you plan on doing a presentation, bring in an article or biography (which can be printed from the internet) that you read about the topic. Important points should be highlighted and you should have some notes written down. Questions?

So for the presentations, you just print a little info sheet and just give info about the topic? That's easy haha! I am studying the map of Africa I wonder why Cameroon is shaped like a chicken?
If we build a model do we get extra, extra credit?
just need to high light and write notes
Yes, Simon, that is all you HAVE to do. However, Bri is right, you would still get extra credit for building a model. Basically, the more you do, the more it is worth...
