September 29


You got your Unit 1 WRA II Essays back today. If you want to talk to me about your essay and how you can improve for the next one, please come and see me in tutorial. We watched a couple of videos from the BBC 20th Century History series, one was called "Boom & Bust" and the other was "FDR and the New Deal". As you watched these videos, you should have taken notes on them. There is a film study sheet in your Social 30-1 study booklets on "Boom & Bust" (page 55), on the back side of this page you should have written your notes on FDR and the New Deal. Please remember that your Chapter 4 Key Terms and Questions are due tomorrow.


We continued our examination of the American Revolution today. I also talked about the format of tomorrow's test. You will have to write an OPVL document analysis of two historical sources tomorrow, this will be a timed portion of the test, as you will have 15 minutes to write this section. Once the class has handed in the OPVL analysis you will get the matching and mapping section of the test. You will then hand this section in and receive the multiple choice section of the test. I gave you a handout on OPVL document analysis, and went over how to do this type of historical analysis again.
