I did a homework check on the Chapter 2 Key Terms and Questions at the beginning of class today. I'll do a homework check on the "Nation and Identity" presentation tomorrow when we have a little more time on our hands. We started watching a History Channel video on the French Revolution. We'll finish this video tomorrow after you write your World Geography Test. Please check the study guide found in the September 8 post. Play some geography review games tonight! Please check the Collaborative Notes section of the wiki, I've added a timeline of key events in the French Revolution, which may be helpful to you.
