March 3


I finished off the lecture on the "Causes of World War I". I also showed a video called "Doomed Dynasties". If you missed today's class, you'll need to get notes from someone else. Your Chapter 3-4 Test is coming up on Tuesday, March 7th, and you have your Unit 1 Final Exam on Wednesday, March 8th. You can find the study guides for both assessments below.

You wrote your Chapter 3-4 Test today. Please remember that you have your Unit 1 WRA I on Monday, and your Unit 1 Final Exam on Tuesday of next week (please see the study guide below).


Unit 1 Final Exam will be Tuesday, March 7th. The format for the exam is entirely multiple choice. It will consist of 55 multiple choice questions, 60-65% of the questions will be "source-based" questions, while the remainder will be simply knowledge and comprehension style questions. In other words, the source-based questions will use political cartoons, timelines, a chart or diagram, a graph, a reading, a photo or a map, and you will have answer questions related to that source. The source-based questions will be difficult to prepare for. You must have a firm grasp of the concepts and key terms that were introduced in Unit 1, because that will allow you to apply the knowledge that you have to answer the multiple choice questions.

Please study your key terms from Chapters 1-5, and the topics covered in that unit.
