November 1

We finished watching "Paris 1919" today. Please make sure that you are ready to present your assigned WWI battle on Monday. Please make sure that you know what assessments will be happening next week.

  • On Wednesday, November 6th you will be writing a matching quiz on the Emergence of the Americas unit.
  • On Thursday, November 7th you will be writing a 38 question multiple choice test on the Emergence of the Americas unit (this covers World War I too).
  • On Friday, November 8th you will write a three source analysis assignment on World War I.

We watched excerpts from "Schindler's List" today and I answered questions about the Holocaust afterwards. This weekend might be a good chance to start your Unit 2 Research Project.


I started lecturing on "The Origins of the Cold War" today. I will continue this on Monday. Also on Monday, November 4th you will be writing a matching quiz on Nazi Germany. Please see the study guide for this quiz below.
