ANCIENT ROMAN MINI-PROJECT
Mrs. Henry
May



 

Assessment Student Work

Directions: Using either the computer or construction or graph paper, work alone or with one other student to create any one of the choices below detailing what ancient Romans might have experienced during the Roman Republic or Empire. Use research from your Roman character project to help you, and supplement it if necessary. You may make up names of athletes, musicians and names of meals, if needed, but base your designs on actual researched facts. You will present your mini-projects in class, showing actual hard-copy designs, or displaying them on the Smart Board using Power Point or MS Publisher.

This project is worth 50 points and you will be graded based on authenticity, creativity, thoroughness and effort as explained on the back of this sheet. Have fun and do your best work!

MINI-PROJECT CHOICES: 

1.  A program for a day describing events at the Roman Colosseum or Circus Maximus

2.  A menu for a Roman banquet, listing ingredients and where they could be found

3.  A landscape map for planting a garden with at least five different fruits, vegetables, or spices

4.  A detailed program for a day at a theater

5.  A plan to revise the government structure of either the Roman Republic or the Roman Empire
