HOMEWORK: Quiz on Monday on Chapters 1-4 Ego Polyphemus

Wednesday 11/20

Tuesday's blog page did not display well, which may explain why a lot of you did not do the assignments.

So now you have another chance!

Although the Quia sets below are set up like Quizzes, I want you to consider them practice exercises. You can take the practice sets  unlimited times and you will see the correct answers right after you finish each question. THIS IS PRACTICE, however, you must do them several times or receive a failing grade. Quia tells me how many times you each took (to the end) each practice set. It also tells me how much time you spent on each question. 

In other words, take these several times and take them seriously. Eventually these practice sets will be real tests. So you want to use the sets to really practice, study and learn. 

Intellegistis?

Bellwork (Quia - 10 questions)
10 Ecce Romani Conjugating Verbs Present Tense 10 Questions
http://www.quia.com/quiz/6890666.html

Task 02. Make a list of verbs in the Story "Departure." (lines 1-10 and 15-16). Use the glossary at the back of the book to identify the first person singular, present tense, and the infinitive. These forms are called the first two "principle parts" of the verb.  Then translate the verb as it appears in the story "Departure."

Examples:

laborant - laboro, laborare 1st conjugation; they are working.

gerit - gero, gerere 3rd conjugation; she is wearing

Make your list in your notebook or on your own paper. Then take a picture of it and submit it here in Google Classroom. DUE TODAY. ---------------------------------------------------

Roman Slavery (look at this whole post so you know what is coming)

Task 03. I have created a series of tasks to help you understand what slavery was like in the Roman world. Plan to devote at least two classes and two homework chunks of time to do the following tasks.

I have put together a collection of sources on Roman slavery (see below - TES-Blendspace). There are things for you to read and things for you to write. The instructions are embedded in the assignments.  One link that can be temperamental is to a PowerPoint that is important for completing a worksheet.  So I am giving the link to the PowerPoint here too.

Roman slavery was different from the trans-Atlantic slavery with which we are familiar from more modern times. There are many surprises in the kind of slavery we find in the Roman world.  And, the number of slaves was vast - approximately 50% of people living in Rome by the 200s CE. 


In your notes make a T-chart with Roman slavery as one heading and American slavery as the other.  Your Roman list should be longer. Keep adding to your T-chart as you read through all the sources offered. 

BEGIN!

Task 03a. Read tile/square 1, 2 and view the Powerpoint in tile 5 (see below). Then in your notebook answer the questions on the worksheet in tile 3 - Google Classroom.. Don't rush through this. And, as always write in complete, grammatically correct sentences. Tile 2 and tile 5 will give you the answers to the questions on the worksheet. You can also find a copy of the worksheet here.

When you have finished answering questions on tile 2, submit them through Google Classroom. (Due date November 13 before 8 a.m.)

Task 03b.

• Read tiles 6, 7, 8, 13 and 14. 
• Then Study this Quizlet set on the Treatment of Slaves.(8-12 minutes)
• Finally complete this open book quiz (pages 75-77 in textbook): 10 Ecce Romani Treatment of Slaves 11 Short Answer questions http://www.quia.com/quiz/6845949.html. Support your answers with quotations from the text. 

_________________

Choose one of the following readings to summarize and write a personal response to what you find there. Why did you choose the text you did? What did you find most interesting about it? What is the author's point of view of slaves and slavery? What did you agree or disagree with? Choose one short passage as quotation that reveals a central point of the text.  You will be graded on the depth and specificity (details, quotations, examples) of your response. 

Task 03c
Slide 15 tells the story of a cruel slave owner murdered by his slaves. It comes from a letter of Pliny the Younger, the same Pliny that documented the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. 

Task 03d.
Slide 16 is written by a philosopher who advances the idea that all humans are slaves - slaves to illness, slaves to fate, slaves to anxieties, slaves to social expectations. So, legal status as a slave is only a matter of degree of enslavement. With the right philosophical insights (frame of mind), one can manage enslavement and still have a good life. 

Task 03e. Slide 17 is about resisting slavery in Ancient Rome. It shows how slaves were not passive victims, but had strategies of resistance.

Exercise 10d (activity)

Friday November 8 VERBS

Task 01: The Infinitive form of Latin Verbs (6 minutes)

Task 02: LatinTutorial the present tense of verbs (6 minutes)

Task 03: Read carefully Chapter 8 page 54

Task 04: Read Chapter 10 Verb conjugations pages 72-73 and answer the questions in your notebooks.

Notes: a conjugation is a group of verbs 
1. how many conjugations are there in Latin?
2. how do you tell to what conjugation a verb belongs?
3. The infinitive ending of 1st conjugation verbs is _____
4. The infinitive ending of 2st conjugation verbs is _____
5. The infinitive ending of 3rd conjugation verbs is _____
6. The infinitive ending of 3rd-io verbs is _____
7. The infinitive ending of 4th conjugation verbs is _____
8. Third conjugation verbs that end in -io in the first person singular are called ___________. These verbs look like 4th conjugation verbs (-ire) in the first person singular, but ONLY there. 
9. It is very important to notice whether the -ere infinitive ending has a long mark over it, or not. Look at the second conjugation in the chart below. Long -e means second conjugation; short-ē

 means third (the short-e will not have any mark over it).

Task 05: Exercise 10b

• ascendo, ascendere - no long mark over -e- therefore 3rd conjugation. Meaning: climb up, ascend
• terreo, terrēre - long-e- therefore 2nd conjugation. Meaning: to scare, terrify
• arripio, arripere - io ending on first person singular and short -e in the infinitive. Therefore 3-io conjugation. Meaning: snatch, grab.

Do 4-15 in the same way in your notebooks. Use the glossary in the back of the book to look up definitions. 

Task 06: Read the directions for 10c and then conjugate 10-15 in your notebook.

Take a picture of your answers to10b and 10c. 

Post in Google Classroom. 

Upcoming deadline

All the assignments in Google Classroom from October 25-today will be due Saturday by 11 p.m. This includes Quia Quizzes. Links to these in the blog.

Thursday November 7

I did not realize that Tuesday was not a school day for students. So I am shifting the deadlines up a day. I want you to use today to complete work that was due Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.  

Everything closes out Saturday and you will not be able to turn in late work after that day. 

Some of you have produced excellent work on your poster and Dei and Deae packet. Others have done a rush job. Some have not submitted anything.  You are sitting in a class with others who know how to achieve excellence. And who are consistent in their efforts. Look around and follow their models.

Poster Instructions:
On plain white paper (behind teacher desk) make two small posters of two different deities: 1) a deity featured in Dei et Deae; 2) a deity from Rose William's Roman gods (preferably a "nearby god"). Posters include images of the attributes of each god (symbols, animals, habitats, etc). An image of the god/goddess. Posters are neat, well designed and colorful.

I have include a link to a high end poster of Minerva. You do not need to do posters as complex as this one. In addition you can look in the hallway by our class door to see posters done by last year's students to get ideas and models of good work.

Note, you do not have to completely re-do your existing poster. I suggest cutting out the texts and images on the posters you already did. Improve these with color, captions (Latin and English), additional information etc. AND then arrange these on a piece of plain white paper (or the colored paper on the shelf at the back of the room) and when you like what you see, glue the cut outs onto the poster. 

Pen and markers are better than pencil; legibility (able to be read - legere) is essential. Can a person sitting in the back of the room read your poster and recognize the images.

God and Goddesses Project (new due date; November 5):

Readings for gods and goddesses project. PROCESS: You will choose two gods, goddesses, or mythological beings. One from your Dei et deae text and the textbook essay. The second you will choose from those discussed by Rose Williams in the category of "near by gods." You may also use information from Williams' "Far Away Gods" for your first god (there is overlap).

OUTCOME: Then you will create a small poster for each of your two gods. The most important things to represent in your posters are the domains (or things that represent the domains) of each god; and the symbols, attributes and/or animals associated with the god (for example: lightening bolt, eagle, throne etc for Jupiter. You also might want to include Jupiter's wife (Juno) or his messenger (Mercury). If the god/dess has a planet or constellation named after him/her you might want to include that.

Project on Gods and Goddesses

1. Take some time to look through all pages of the handout. Look in particular at the questions at the end. The Latin text will help you answer the questions.  Pages 68-69 in your textbook will help you too. Find it here.

Task 1. Whole class vocabulary game VINCO. Vinco (means "I win" in Latin; it is the same as Bingo).

a.  TEACHER: Distribute 6 blank Vinco sheets to each student and the list of words from chapters 01-07. (HANDOUTS)

b. STUDENTS: Fill out the spaces on TWO Vinco sheet with LATIN words from Chapter 04 and 01 (page 1 word list). Don't combine lists. One Vinco sheet for 04 and one for 01.  Then turn over the vocabulary lists so you cannot see the definitions.

c. TEACHER: The teacher will then call out ENGLISH words from Chapter 04  random order. 
                  Mark with a check words as you call them out so you                        won't call out the same word twice. Hold onto your                          vocabulary sheets because you will use them again with                    Latin III. 

d. STUDENTS: Cover the Latin word on your sheet when/if the teacher calls out the English definition. The goal, as in Bingo, is to have five covered words in a row, horizontal or diagonal

e.  TEACHER  Play until there are winners. Check the "winner's" covered words to make sure they covered the words you called out. 

f. TEACHER: record the winners for future prizes.

q. STUDENTS: Please don't write on word lists because you will turn them in so another class can use them. 

Task 2. Vinco. New game.  This time play the game with Chapter 04 words which you have already copied from page 1. Follow the directions given above c-f.

Tasks 3-4. Two new game games. Now fill out TWO new Vinco sheets with words from Chapter 05 on one sheet (page 4) and Chapters 06 and 02 combined on the second sheet (pages 4 and 2 of vocabulary lists). Turn over the lists. Play the two games following the directions given above c-f.

Task 5-6. Vinco two new game games with words from Chapter 07 (page 3) and Chapter 03 (page 5). Use two separate Vinco sheets. Play the two games following the directions given above c-f.

Teacher: STOP 25 MINUTES BEFORE THE END OF CLASS, so student can do Task 7. First period stop at 8:35. Third period stop at 12:35. 

Task 7. Students -01-07 Mega Vocabulary Practice Test. Recommended: do this also for homework.

HOMEWORK. Exercise 7b, textbook page 40 in Google Classroom (plural nouns-a graded assignment***).  Vocabulary Practice Test: Task 6 above.
