Easter vacation is here!

Although it doesn't look too good for Caesar in this picture (he's about to be stabbed to death in the Senate), we have a nice break coming our way. Here are some notes for the next eleven days.

By popular demand, I have posted my recording of Rome (by Chi Cago) to the left. Feel free to play it any time you need a laugh, if you want to "study" ancient Rome, or if you're having a dance party over the break and you need some fly beats.

I promised no homework over the break. However, on April 14 (our third day back) there will be an assignment due. So, IF you would like to get a jump on this over the break, feel free.

The assignment: Combine your class notes with the notes I have supplied, and make a Prezi or a PowerPoint on the life of Julius Caesar. It's worth 20 points. My notes can be found at the left (or by clicking here), and the Prezi website can be found here. (In my opinion, Prezi is much more fun. With this much time off, it's a good opportunity to take your time and learn how to make a Prezi. Impress your other teachers with your awesome skills.) This is due Wednesday, April 14. We come back to school April 12.

Since we don't have class over the break, you don't need to post to your blog over the break.

I hope you have an incredible vacation that allows you to rest, enjoy some beautiful weather, hang out with your friends and family, and come back rejuvenated. Happy Easter!
