July 8


You wrote your Unit 1 WRA II Essays until the break today. I did a homework check on the Chapter 3 Key Terms and Questions before we went to the computer lab. After the break I went through a PowerPoint presentation called "Responding to Classical Liberalism", while I was lecturing, you should have filled in the corresponding chart in your blue study booklets (Responding to Classical Liberalism and Industrialization chart). Your homework tonight is to complete the "Philosophies of Industrialism" section of your Social 30-1 blue study booklets. I also went through the business cycle. As we progress in the course, we'll revisit the business cycle to see how government intervention in the economy lessens the extremes of boom and bust cycle. You have a test on Friday, July 11th, please see the study guide below.
