March 4


Most of today's class was spent writing the Democracy Unit Final. You should have picked up a copy of the summary notes for Case Study 11 after the test, and received your Civil Rights Movement questions back. Please remember that your Chapter 6 Questions are due tomorrow, and your Chapter 7 and Case Study 11 questions are due on Friday. Tomorrow will be a very important class, we have lots of ground to cover, including the law of supply and demand, the business cycle, the Causes of the Great Depression, and we'll be watching a video called "Boom and Bust". Please make sure that you have read the Case Study 11 summary notes before tomorrow's class.


I gave you a couple of handouts today, one was called Similarities and Differences Between Hitler and Mussolini. The other handout was called Dictatorship: Rule by Elites, this is or homework. We also watched a video today called "The Fatal Attraction of Adolf Hitler".


To further our understanding of World War I, we watched a couple of videos, one was called "The Clash of the Generals" and the other was called "Trench Warfare". You were to take notes on these videos. I also gave you a booklet on the Causes of World War I, which is an excellent resource. Please remember that you have your Chapter 3-4 Test tomorrow, here is the study guide.
