September 11


You had the entire period to work on your map, it is due tomorrow. Please make sure that you have it completed! Here are some reminder instructions for the map:

  • People on the map should be represented by circles, color the circles and make sure there is a number beside each circle
  • Make sure that you have colored the 25 different countries (color the entire country), these countries represent the 25 items that you found for homework last night
  • Make sure that you have labeled every country that you or a classmate has a connection to
  • Choose different colors to represent your different categories (food, clothing, electronics, entertainment)
  • Make sure that you have a detailed key on the back of your map
  • Make sure that you have a title for your map
  • Make sure that you have a simplified key on the front of your map


I delivered a presentation/lecture on the causes of the French Revolution today in class. I have already sent that presentation to you, so please check your e-mail accounts today, and print off the slides from this presentation and put them in your notebooks/binders. I have also sent you your first document-based analysis assignment, please print off and bring it to class tomorrow. I will be doing a homework check on this tomorrow. It is really important that you attend class tomorrow, because I will be explaining how to complete DBA #1 in class. I also assigned the following questions from Chapter 2 as homework: Q1, 3, 5-7, 13-17.

  • Chapter 2 Questions (Q1, 3, 5-7, 13-17) are due Thursday, September 13th
  • Print off DBA #1 and bring it to class, due tomorrow
  • Enlightenment Thinkers Quiz is on Monday, September 17th

-----------------------
On the front of the map, have one legend with your categories. On the backside of the page, have a more detailed legend. Please read over the instructions here on the blog, I think it should clear up what you're supposed to do.

Lines are fine.

If you go over it in pen it will look a lot better. Just make sure that the pen you use doesn't "bleed" through.
