The Legacy of the Roman Empire Today, we start our unit on the Roman Empire. You will learn how make empire/kingdom/country maps and familiarize ourselves with the prereading processes. This are things that we will do for every chapter, for every unit.

Map of Roman Empire Before studying Roman, we need to know where things were—Cities, mountains, bodies of water, and boarders. Remember! Roman soldiers couldn’t snapchat us! They left us maps.

CH 1 Pre-Read What does “pre-read” mean? Why do we do it? Let’s do a bit of the Pre-Read together, so you know the process.

Clean Up • Binder Stars put away team’s binders • Material Masters gather Roman Empire Map and turn it in a Turn-In Station. • Check the floor for trash, pencils, etc. • Make sure the desks are centered in the blue squares. • Sit back down quietly.
