Happy Monday,
As you learned, Europe transitions out of the Middle Ages into a period of rebirth. What exactly is being reborn? How do Europeans use their history to reinvent their society? Who leads the charge? How does it relate to who we are as Americans? These are all questions that your will be able to answer at the end of this unit.
Today we will be focusing on the Renaissance in Italy. You will need to use page 117 of your notebook for notes. Page 116 will be a flip page map. Under 116 you will write a summary.
