Comparing Judaism and Christianity/ Timeline Practice

We started out class with some timeline practice today.  If you're checking the blog because you were absent and want the extra credit, that's what you have to do.  You can GET A COPY HERE, or I may have an extra at school.  No promises though... if I'm out and you don't have a copy, print it out at the Media Center.

Here's a key to remember when you're working with timelines: if you have to jump over "0" you add.  If you stay on the same side of the timeline, subtract.  (And yes, we know there's no year ).

We've been studying some of the similarities between Judaism and Christianity...  The major ones.

Obviously, there are a lot - since Jesus Christ was Jewish and followed the Jewish customs, and law.

I'll try to post the big stuff tomorrow after students turn in their Venn diagrams.  (That reminds me, if students didn't finish their Venn diagrams - or if they were absent - they've got homework.  ...Most people should be done.)

If you just showed up for the extra credit, here's what you have to do.  Read and discuss the blog with an adult.  Tell the adult 3 similarities between Judaism and Christianity.  Write down one.  Have the adult you read and discussed with sign the paper.

Turn it in tomorrow.

Until then, have a great day.
