1C's History Homework

Graded Assignment

One last missing graded assignment

Eugene Toh (1E)

Put your homework in my box on Monday before morning assembly. It is outside the staff room (near the lift)

SBQ

Just to add on, for source-based question, once you make the wrong inference, the whole question is wrong. So, please make sure your inferences are logical. Follow the format that I went through in class. For civilisations, the inferences are usually related to the 5 features: Government and Control; Science and the arts; Complex beliefs; Various Occupations and Form of language and writing.

INFERENCES CANNOT BE LIFTED FROM THE SOURCE!!!

Claim your work!!!

Sec 1 Express homework deadline & Test

TEST

WHEN? -----> WEEK 4 DURING LECTURE

WHAT WOULD BE TESTED? ------> CHAPTER 1 AND 2

ALL THAT YOU'VE LEARNT FROM WEEK 1 TO WEEK 3 

i.e. Counting years, constructing timeline, source-based question (inference), definitions etc etc

Lastly, just to let you know that (if you still have not figured it out) history is a lot about memorising with understanding. Otherwise, you would not know how to do the questions. Take note, INFERENCE CANNOT CANNOT CANNOT BE COPIED FORM THE SOURCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2006 - The Indus Valley Civilisation (The Masters of the River) of India...

This is another interesting video on Indus Valley Civilisation. However, it is rather long so watch if when you're free and if you're interested.

1E

For those of you who are interested, I will post the photos/pictures and short paragraphs that I went through in class today. Please take a look.

Description of Shang King's Burial

In the center a deep pit was dug. The pit was considered the gateway to the underworld. This gateway was protected by a sacrificial burial of an armed warrior. The Main wood chamber lay on top of his grave. The king's coffin lie in this chamber filled with royal treasure. Around the main chamber, scattered in all four corners, lie the king's sacrificed servants to accompany him into the afterlife. Skulls were found facing the center. More headless skeletonswere found then there were heads to match. In addition, there were chariots and their charioteers lying on the ramps leading to the surface to the north and the south. They were said to be there to protect the king from robbers and evil spirits.

Different examples of Arts, Crafts and Science from the Shang Dynasty

Instead of the 40mins video, you might want to watch this.

Mistake

If there is any mistake in the names for people who have not handed in your work, comment below with your name, class and assignment. I will check and see if it's with me. 

5 main categorization for features of civilisation

Dear 1E and 1F students,

Take note!!!

I would suggest for you to categorize the features of a civilisation as follow:

1. Government and control
2. Variety of occupations
3. Science and the arts
4. Writing / Language
5. Complex beliefs

Let's standardize the way we categorize the different features. It would be easier for you to study together as well as for the teachers to mark.

Goodnight and sweet dreams!
Miss Ong :)
