IB 20

We watched an A & E Biography video today called "Joseph Stalin: Red Terror", which took most of the class period. We'll start to transition into the rise of fascism and Hitler in Germany this week. I have updated the wiki as well. I've added a handout that compares communism and fascism. As well, I've posted a PowerPoint presentation on the wiki under Unit 7 Dictatorships on Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. I won't deliver this lecture in class, however it contains a tremendous amount of information and it is highly recommended that you print it off and study from it.

Here's a couple of announcements:

• For Diploma students, there's an Extended Essay meeting this Friday (May 25th) after school in Room 121.
• For all IB 20 students: Paper 2, Thursday May 31st in class.
