Socials 8-1,8-2: Ocean Exploration quiz and intro to the Reformation

On Monday we wrote the quiz and then did a review of the history topics we've done so far in the course. We created a timeline and then put SS8 in context with SS7 and the courses that come next. Next, as an introduction to the Reformation, we reminded ourselves of the East/West split in the empire during Roman times. We also reconnected to some of our previous learning from the crusades and then I used a story where I would sell "A"s for $50 as a way to introduce some of the practices of the Catholic Church as a way to understand how a religious protest movement might be started.

There is no homework.
