In my previous post about the Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire skits, I mentioned that we had to reschedule the performances from the original date of Friday, May 28 to next Tuesday/Wednesday. As it turns out, there are several issues that make that time even more problematic for performances. Thus, we told students today that the show will have to go on Friday, May 28.
If students are absent the day of the performance, they will not get full credit for the assignment. To earn back the missing points, students should complete the following assignment:
Use the links at http://www.rome.mrdonn.org/ to help you answer the following questions. Write 2 – 3 complete sentences to answer each question.
- What events caused the failure of the Roman Republic and made it become an empire?
- How did Caesar Augustus improve life in Rome?
- What events caused the fall of the Roman Empire?
