This week you should try to learn as much as you can about a fun period in History known as the Renaissance! Renaissance = Rebirth
Most people think about the Renaissance as a rebirth of learning and culture in Europe after the Medieval Dark Ages.
While there is amazing art that is created in this time period- you should realize that this is also a period of great questioning, intellectualism, scientific discovery, and exploration!
IMPORTANT: This is the start of "Modern World-History" and really an intro to Global 10. There is a Regents Exam at the end of Global 10- So understanding the changes that take place in Europe during the Renaissance will greatly help you understand many topics next year!
So- By Wednesday please do the following:
1. Read Chapter 13- Sections 1+2
2. Review the posted notes below
3. Take notes on the "Renaissance Men"
Who were they? How did they change the world?
