What we did Wednesday, September 22nd

If you missed class, please open up the PowerPoint to see what you missed and complete all activities including the warm-up check in, notes on the mini-lectures, and the assignment. First, we did a warm-up where we used our notes and previous assignments to collectively brainstorm what made the Song dynasty powerful. Then, we took notes on the fall of the Song, rise and fall of the Yuan, and rise of the Ming dynasties. Next, we watched a Crash Course on Zheng He and took some brief notes while watching. Lastly, we introduced the Ming Dynasty and Zheng He assignment that is due to Canvas by Monday, September 27th by 11:59pm.
