Social 20-1
We watched a documentary today called "Darfur: On Our Watch" which revisited some themes from Unit 2 such as contemporary examples of genocide but also was very critical of inaction on the part of the international community, specifically the United Nations. Your Chapter 12 Key Terms and Questions are due tomorrow. I will be giving out the Unit 3 essay question sheets tomorrow in class, so it's an important day. You will be writing your Unit 3 Essay on Monday, May 31st. Your unit 3 Final Exam is on Wednesday, June 2nd. Please see the study guide here.
Here are some good links on Darfur:
- Here's a hyperlink to Eyes on Darfur (an Amnesty International project).
- CBC News in Depth: Darfur, Sudan
- If you have Google Earth, have a look at this download from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum called Crisis in Darfur
- Eric Reeves website on Sudan (featured in the film "Darfur: On Our Watch")
Social 30-1
You wrote your Unit 3 Essay today in class. I also shared results of your Chapter 10 Test (finally I remembered to print off the results), and your 30-1 Field Test. There is still a lot of review to be done in preparation for your Diploma Exam Part B. Speaking of tests, your Unit 3 Final Exam is on Wednesday, June 2nd. Please see the study guide here for this exam (scroll down to find it).
