If you missed class, we completed the following:

1. Journal #12 "All Roads Lead to Rome"
The above quote is a metaphor. Tell what you think it means! What have you found interesting about the information shared with you concerning Roman culture so far?  In addition, refer to your notations from our last class period, and tell me what you found interesting from each section ("Constantine," "Fall of Rome," and "Pompeii"). I can't wait to hear from you.

2. We contintued with discussing Roman frescoes and the lost city of Pompeii. We also viewed a video clip regarding Pompeii.
