IB 30/35
We started class today by watching a video called "The Roaring Twenties" from the U.S. History series. You then had the remainder of class time to work on the 1920s Study Guide. You were to bring your United States and Its People textbook to class today, and use it answer the questions from the 1920s Study Guide. The most useful chapter in the textbook to answer the questions would be Chapter 20: The Twenties: Blowing the Lid Off 1919-1928. This study guide is due on Wednesday. Please remember that you're writing your Paper 1 tomorrow.Social 20-1
Your Unit 2 Research Project was due in class today. If this project is handed in late, you lose 10% off in marks for every day that it is late. I also did a homework check on your "Gandhi" film study. We tied up some loose ends in the Unit 2 material today by covering the case study of Kosovo declaring its independence in 2008.
