EURO - Wednesday, 11/7

Today...

1. Stamped Reformation graphic organizer (in-class work)

2. Reviewed causes/effects of Reformation

3. Introduced the Big Project: Elizabethan England research essay outline/creative project.

HOMEWORK
for Thursday
- Create a PIRATES Chart on Elizabethan England (see directions below) and choose a topic (I'll talk more about this on Weds when I intro. the project).
- Topic Choice (about one sentence).

Elizabethan England PIRATES:
- Using your book and the web resources below, create a chart identifying the top two main points for each part of Elizabethan society (Political, Intellectual, etc).
- Main points can include people, events, concepts, etc. You should provide a few sentence description/definition of the point, including why it is significant to Elizabethan history.

WEB RESOURCES:
Please do not use Wikipedia.

BBC - The Tudors (this is probably your best bet, very thorough)

Elizabethan England (a simplistic overview organized into categories that can provide a starting point)

Shakespeare's England (quick overview article with weblinks)

Britain Express - Tudor England
(another excellent source, organized into categories)

The Elizabethan Age (well organized in subsections)
