In class and Homework for 9/24

In class today, we will finish our notes on the Han Dynasty.

Once we have finished, you are going to take on the role of an advisor to the Han Dynasty and create a plan that would have prevented the Han Dynasty from collapsing.  When and how would you intervene?  What problems existed and how would you solve them?

Post your plan on your blog, and when everyone is finished we will hash them out together to create the ultimate solution for the Han Dynasty.

Homework for tonight - Read pgs 207 - 213 in your textbook..off to India we go!

You should have downloaded a QR reader/scanner app and tonight you'll need to use it.

Skip till you get to the QR code for the Gathas (Hymns of the Zoroastrian faith).  Read each hymn (there are four) and summarize the main ideas/message of each.  Post this response to your blog!
