February 19


You wrote your Unit 1 WRA II Essay today in class. I will try to get these essays marked as soon as possible, but please bear in mind that I have the U of C HSMUN conference this weekend, so it's a busy time for me. You actually won't have another major assessment until mid-March. You can also check out when assessments are occurring in class by clicking on the Social 30-1 tab here on the blog, and then scrolling down the page to the list of test dates.


We looked at Napoleon's invasion of Russia today by watching a short video from "Turning Points of History" video. We also looked at the 19th century political spectrum today as well. If you missed class today, you need to get these notes from a classmate. Please remember that you are writing your Chapter 1-2 Test on Monday, February 23rd. You can find the study guide below. I also gave you your French Revolution DBA assignments today. The DBA is due next Thursday (February 26th).


This test will be on Monday, February 23rd. The test has a matching section and a short answer section. Make sure that you have read both Chapter 1-2 from your textbook Exploring Nationalism.

Study your answers to the questions from the Unit 1 Worksheet for Chapter 1-2 (short answer section questions come from this part of the worksheets)

  • "Nation and Identity" (Chapter 1 material + supplementary material)
  • "The French Revolution" (Chapter 2 material + supplementary material)
  • "The Napoleonic Age" (Chapter 2 material + supplementary material; you can find this on the wiki, and I will go through it in class in the next couple of days)

  • It might also be helpful to check out the French Revolution timeline that I posted on the Social 20-1 wiki, along with the Age of Napoleon timeline. You can find links to these timelines on the wiki, on the Unit 1 page.
