PBS: Romans in the First Century

Romans in the First Century

Directions:

a.  Each group has three links to look at.  Look up the web sites assigned to you.  Take notes.  These will be handed in.  Find at least two other sources to enhance your knowledge of people of ancient Rome.  Prepare a work cited page.

            b.  If you have time, go to http://www.pbs.org/empires/romans/special/emperor_game.html and     play the emperor game.  Who did you come out as?

c.  Create a giant visual of a typical person in your research using butcher block paper and markers.  The visual must provide information about the people of your section.
