As we begin to get more in depth with our Ancient Civilization Projects, we've been looking for good resources to share as a class. These are some that we've already found useful. Keep looking back here because I'll add more as we find new and better sites to explore.

Ancient Civilizations Library Trip

May 7, 2012 Dear Parents, We will be travelling to Annette Street Public Library tomorrow afternoon as a class in order to gather resources for our Ancient Civilizations projects. Permission is covered by the walking excursion forms already returned at the beginning of the year. I would, however, greatly appreciate it if a few parents were able to accompany us, even with such short notice. If you are able to come tomorrow afternoon, please contact me via email at lisa.goegan@tdsb.on.ca , through the school phone at 416-393-9025 or leave a note in your child’s agenda. Students are encouraged to come to school with their library card and appropriate walking gear. Incidentally, I've also added the scaffolding questions for the ancient civilization topics to this site for student use. Sincerely, Lisa Goegan
