Chinese Dynasties Sui and Tang
It would be best if the students wait to read this lesson the day before classes resume, as they will likely forget much of what they read over the long break; at least I quickly forget foreign information, such as Chinese dynasties!
The only homework is to read Lesson 28.

Review for Quiz
Review lessons 12 - 27, using your history cards and the formerly completed pages 52, 63, 78, and 105-111.
This may feel tedious, but it is consistent review that pulls it altogether in a flow of history.
Do pages 64, 79, 93, 117, and 135 as further review; yes, some of it may be repetitive, but it should be EASY and fun to see how much you have learned. Try to do the pages without helps at first, but you may use the text to look up things you can't remember. Doing this will also help you be prepared for the quiz on Friday.

Beginning the Dark Ages & King Arthur and His Knights!
Complete the reading of Lesson 22 and also read Lesson 23.
Look at Activity #2 on page 127/ 23B. Instead of everyone writing 3 paragraphs, I am making the following assignments for each student to look up the information and use it to write 1 paragraph on the duties of each:
Connor: the duties of a page.
Jacob: the duties of a squire.
Joseph: the duties of a knight.
Allie: the duties of a noble lady.
Be prepared to share your paragraph in class on Friday, so please do a good job to help us all learn more about these positions. Have fun with it! Feel free to also be creative, such as showing pictures or giving a demonstration of something.
