We started off today with the Unit 1 Final Exam. We did some more Unit 2 material today, by going through the "Responding to Classical Liberalism" PowerPoint lecture. You will be tested on this content next week with the Ideological Reaction to Industrialization Test (please see study guide below). You wrote your Unit 1 WRA I after the break. This weekend, it is recommended that you read Chapter 3 and 4 in the textbook, and complete the Chapter 3 and 4 key concepts and activities in the Google Doc.
