Where we are in Place and Time







The first week of school and we were given right away The NIGHTMARE!!! It's our new unit which is titled Where we are in Place and Time. This brand new clean unit is focusing on 3 things which i will tell you right away:








  1. Past Civilizations




  2. What contributions have impacted later times




  3. The influences of past civilizations on the host country




Those are what we will be focusing on this new unit. We will learn about ancient Rome and a country we choose. Later on, we will make a report of what these 2 countries relate to My Country, which is INDONESIA.
Our Key concepts are:








  1. Causation




  2. Change




  3. Connection




In every unit we have a central idea so it can help us easier to understand the unit deeper and also to give a short, broad explanation about the unit. Our unit's central idea is:





Past civilizations have made contributions to our present day societies




We covered some of the tasks we are expexcted to do in this unit. One of them is the poster we must do with our partner. I did mines with Jason and it's about the ancient Hittites. There aren't much info on Hittites but they have a very special character. The other tasks we haven't do is still not due today or tomorrow but next week, and some are due next 2 weeks, and some are due next 3 weeks and so on.




What's most important is TIME MANAGEMENT
