You wrote your Economic Systems Exam today. You'll get the results back tomorrow. If you missed this exam today, and you have an explained absence, please see me so we can talk about when you'll make this exam up. You have your Unit 2 WRA I three source analysis assignment this Thursday (April 9th). Please review how to write a three source analysis assignment. I went through how to write these already in class, and you have a section in your Social 30-1 study booklets on these assignments. I would also recommend that you look at the WRA I page on the Social 30-1 wiki to check out some sample WRA I analysis assignments. You can also look at the Diploma Exam Review page on the wiki to see past samples. On Friday you will have a matching quiz on Nazi Germany. Please see the study guide below for this quiz.
