I gave you back the results of the Democracy Unit Final at the beginning of class, as well as collecting the Chapter 6 Questions. Please remember that your Chapter 7 and Case Study 11 Questions are due tomorrow. We covered a fair bit of material today, looking at the Law of Supply and Demand, and the Business Cycle, and finally looking at the Great Depression by starting a video called "Boom and Bust". We'll finish watching this video tomorrow, as well as watching another video on "FDR and the Great Depression".
