Starting out on the Hajj with Mansa Musa

Here's Ms. Woods saying, "Do your best AND BE your best!"

Homework:

Your homework is to make sure you've completed your journal entry for Niani, 1324, Morning on your MM Hajj site.  We will not be revisiting Document A.

Classwork:

Go onto your google site.  Do this by typing into your address bar:  sites.google.com

Click on your blog site:  MM Hajj - name

If you have not transferred the information about "Your Persona," you need to do so now:

On the left, click on "Your Persona."  Once at the page, click on the pencil in the upper right hand of the box. Replace the model information about your persona for this assignment.

Next, move on to "Document A."  This document can be found in Google Classroom.  Open it up and go over the chart with your elbow partner.  Pay close attention to the numbers; some of them are astounding.  Then, answer the four document analysis questions.  Make sure to TURN IT IN after you are done writing your blog post!!

Go to your MM Hajj site.  On the left, click on  Niani, 1324, Morning.   Once at the page, click on the pencil in the upper right hand of the box. Underneath the prompt, answer the prompt FULLY.  Please make sure to find an image that goes with your journal response. Don't forget:  You must reference information from the document in order to receive full credit!

Geography of Sub-Saharan Africa

Homework:

None

Classwork:

Go to Google Classroom and access the blank Google Presentation file.

You will make a Google presentation about the geography of Africa.  Each slide was given a different geographic area or environment.  You need to find a picture of that geographic area (include the URL of the picture--give credit where due).  Also, you will need to give a fact about that geographic area.

This is due by the beginning of class Monday.  Make sure to have it completed by that time.
