Hi!!

We had our first presentation day yesterday and it was definitely insightful and interesting. I learned a lot of facts about the Colosseum and the fact that women and dwarfs were gladiators too! (Crazy!)

There was an fun game of jeopardy on the baths and aqueducts. We got some tasty road cake as well as lots of good facts about who used the roads. I think people enjoyed our presentation of Ostia with our brochures and postcards and information. (Hopefully all the cds burned correctly so everyone can learn Italian!)

I really liked learning about Ostia because there's so much information and it's nice to study something that isn't Rome but is closely tied to it and has a lot of similarities as well.

Good start. The blog is rich on the artifact side and not as rich on the blog side. Would certainly improve by reflecting on the experience of working in a team, and the process of developing and assembling the presentation: from idea development to presentation.
