September 14

I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to actually post this on Friday. I was very busy with Model UN practice sessions after school yesterday...

IB 30/35

Today was a very light day in that we simply looking at some statistical information from the book "Time on the Cross" and answered some basic interpretation questions. Next week we'll be getting into the causes of the Civil War.

Social 10-1

You wrote your World Geography Test for part of Friday's class. We then started our film study of "Whale Rider", which we'll continue on Monday. I did a homework check on your Chapter 2 Key Terms and Questions as well. This weekend would be a great time to begin work on your Illustrated Concept Map assignments as well. Please remember that you have a Chapter 1-2 Test on Thursday, September 20th, the study guide can be found here.

IB 20

After some technical difficulties we watched a little bit of "When Worlds Collide". If you wish to watch the entire documentary (which we haven't done), you can do so below. I started looking at the Spanish conquest of the Americas as well with a PowerPoint presentation. Please remember that you have your Enlightenment thinker assignment due on Tuesday. Unleash your creativity on this project! As I said in class given some of your results on current events quizzes, you NEED to do well on this assignment!

Watch When Worlds Collide on PBS. See more from When Worlds Collide.
