Today we had our Socratic Seminar about Jared Diamond's article based off of his book, Guns, Germs, and Steel. Great work everyone for coming prepared! We learned about what steps lead to the creation of civilization.

Journal: Identify two nations you deem to be civilized. What criteria did you use to determine their civility?

Homework: Answer the 4 questions on "What is a Civilization?" and begin the Unit 1 packet along with the Chapter 1 reading assignment.
