July 15


I collected your Chapter 10 Key Terms and Questions Booklets at the beginning of class today. You wrote your Chapter 9-10 Quiz today as well, and the results were very good. You also wrote your Unit 2 In-Class Writing Assignment, this one was based on the Social 30-2 Written Response Assignment II in which you have three sources to interpret. I will try to mark these today, so that you will know the results tomorrow. I delivered a PowerPoint presentation called "Foundations of Economic Globalization" today as well, I have already sent this presentation to you, so please check your e-mail. Your Chapter 11 Key Terms and Question Booklet is due on Friday, July 17th. My expectation is that I have 100% completion of this booklet because you are getting an extra day to work on it. You have your Unit 2 Final Exam tomorrow, so please see the study guide below. On Friday, you have a Chapter 11 Quiz, please see the study guide for that quiz below. Please make a note of the upcoming important dates as well.
