Social 20-1

If you didn't finish off "Shake Hands with the Devil" yesterday, you would have today. Hopefully, you got some time today to work on your Chapter 8 Key Terms and Questions. This homework assignment is due next Friday, May 3rd. You will be writing your Unit 2 WRA I on Tuesday, April 30th. You won't be allowed to have the WRA I writing guide out when you write it, so you need to memorize the steps.

Social 30-1

You should have handed in your Chapter 7 Key Terms and Questions today at the beginning of class. We continued watching "Good Night, and Good Luck" today in class. Don't forget that you have the Unit 2 WRA II Essay on Monday, May 6th and the Chapter 7 Test on Wednesday, May 1st.
