Ancient Rome Vs. Today


Welcome to Water for Sixth Grade. Today, you will be comparing Ancient Rome with our world today, in 2010. Luckily for you, I will provide articles for you to read about Ancient Rome that will help you find similarities and differences between Ancient Rome and today. You will be comparing using three categories: Housing, Education, and Entertainment. For each category, you will tell me three differences and three similarities between Ancient Rome and today. Please follow my example, so your answer is clear and easily understood. For this post, you will use complete sentences.

Use these websites for Ancient Rome information:

Example:
Housing Similarities
1. Ancient Rome and today both have........
2.
3.
Housing Differences
1. Ancient Roman houses have.......
2.
3.
Then do education and entertainment, etc....
For the differences category, you can simply list what Ancient Rome had but do not need to list what its like today. For if its under the differences category, that obviously it's different than today.
You may need to think with your brain for this one in trying to come up with similarities and differences. Take some time to think about housing, entertainment, and education in our world and compare it to Ancient Rome via the websites I have for you.
Good Luck!
