IB 30/35

You watched a National Geographic video called "Inside North Korea" today in class. This video was set during the time of Kim Jong-il, but North Korea is relatively unchanged since the making of the video. The divided Korean peninsula is a legacy of the Cold War, and Mr. Kerr may have discussed current events surrounding Kim Jong-un and North Korean missile testing. Please be ready to write your Cold War exam next Tuesday (March 13th), you can find the study guide below.

We were able to do an activity based around the story "The Rabbits". This book addresses some of the themes that we'll be looking at Unit 2, such as cultural contact, assimilation, imperialism, differing world views, and residential schools. You would have spent a fair bit of time looking at the symbolism in the book and some of the themes that the book introduces.Your Chapter 6 Key Terms and Questions are due on Monday.

Mr. Kerr would have lectured today on how the Allied Powers won the First World War, and how that led into the Paris Peace Conference. I'll continue lecturing on this topic on Monday.
