April 1

IB 30/35

I played a little April Fool's joke on you about a current events quiz at the beginning of class, but be forewarned, we haven't had one in a while, and you're overdue. We watched Episode 3 of Eyes on Prize today, called "Ain't Scared of Your Jails (1960-1961)". This episode focused on youth involvement in the civil rights movement, including lunch counter sit-ins and the freedom rides. Please remember that your Civil Rights Assignment is due on Friday, April 4th.

IB 20 HOTA

Most of today's class was spent writing a Paper 1 on the Independence Movements unit. Tomorrow, you will be writing an American Revolution Quiz (30 multiple choice questions), and then we'll shift our focus back to Europe to cover the French Revolution.

I started a PowerPoint lecture called "Legacies of Historical Globalization", which I didn't finish, because we moved on to a documentary the PBS series the Africans. The episode that I showed was called "Tools of Exploitation". We will finish off the video and the film study sheet tomorrow, and we'll also finish off the PowerPoint lecture too. I did a homework check on the Chapter 7 Key Terms and Questions today. Please remember that you have your Chapter 7 Test on Monday, April 7th. Please see the study guide below.
