Christianity 3.4.09
Posted on March 3rd, 2009 by ecrockett
Students will begin to study the beginning of Christianity. We will begin with a graffiti board to see what students already know and then follow that with a discussion. Students will read and discuss Ch. 6, Sec. 3. Their notes will consist of one to two sentences that summarize each section. On Friday, the students will have a sub and will need to read the primary sources (portions of the Bible) that deal with the rise of Christianity in Ancient Rome. They will use a reading technique to study primary source and pick out the important information.

Moving to Christianity
Posted on February 24th, 2009 by ecrockett
Students are learning to take notes in a variety of fashions. After we discuss culture and have a lecture covering both the beginning and the culture of Rome we will move on the Christianity.
I want to make it clear that I am in no way converting any student to any religion, including Christianity. It is a state standard and students will be tested, read primary sources (portions of the New Testament affected by the civilization of Rome) and participate in discussions. Students are not to put down other students for their religion and respecting others and their beliefs will be respected by all students. Any action that is not respectful of others will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
