IB 30/35

I did a homework check on Episode 5 of "Eyes on the Prize" and on your Civil Rights Movement Assignment at the beginning of class. We watched Episode 6 of "Eyes on the Prize". You can find the questions that you must answer on the IB 30/35 wiki under "Civil Rights and Social Movements". I will do a homework check on Episode 6 on Monday. We'll be watching an A & E Biography of Martin Luther King on Monday, and you will also get a reading package on Monday as well on the U.S. Civil Rights Movement. On Thursday, April 10th, you'll be writing your U.S. Civil Rights Movement Test. I'm posting some review tips below. As I said in class today, today marks the anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King. If you'd like to read up on the assassination of MLK, you can check out the following link. I'm also posting a link to the Boston Globe, because they did a really nice retrospective of King's "I Have a Dream Speech".

IB 20 HOTA

I collected Part A and C of your IA today. We didn't quite finish off History Channel's documentary "The French Revolution". I would recommend that you examine the rest of the "French Revolution" PowerPoint presentation from the IB 20 wiki. I probably won't have a chance to cover the rest of this lecture on Monday, since we have to move on to Napoleon next week.
