IB 30/35

We finished off the US History series video on the "Causes of the Civil War". I then delivered a PowerPoint presentation on "The Causes of the Civil War". This presentation is already on IB 30 wiki in the United States Civil War section. You have a Civil War mapping assignment due on Thursday. Both the maps and the instructions are on the IB 30 wiki. We'll be splitting you into TOK Civil War presentation groups in class tomorrow.

We watched a video today from the A & E Biography series on Napoleon Bonaparte. While you watched this video you should have taken notes on the timeline sheet that I gave you. I went over the 19th century political spectrum (thanks for the reminder!) completely. I started a PowerPoint lecture on the Napoleonic Age. You can check out timeline of the key events of the French Revolution here and a timeline of the Napoleonic Age here. These timelines are hosted at TimeToast, and you can view them in timeline form (as they appear below) and in chart format on their website. Your Chapter 1-2 Test is on Thursday, you can find the study guide here (scroll down to find it).
