IB 20 HOTA

I went through a PowerPoint lecture called "The Jacksonian Age" which you can find on the IB 20 wiki under Unit 6: Nation-Building and Challenges. We'll continue our examination of the expansion of the United States tomorrow, and we should get into the Mexican-American War tomorrow as well. You have a current events quiz tomorrow as well.

Social 10-1

We watched another section of "The Corporation" today, and while you watched the video, you were supposed to take notes on it. We didn't quite have enough time to pick corporations for your TNC dossier assignment today, so we'll start with that tomorrow. We'll hopefully have enough time left over to complete "The Corporation". Please remember that you have your Chapter 10-11 Test on Wednesday, May 7th. Please see the study guide here (scroll down to find it).

 

IB 30/35

We did the class picture today. We continued talking about 9/11 and its aftermath. Please make sure that you read the material on the wiki under Social 30-1 Unit 3 on the USA PATRIOT Act, the Anti-Terrorism Act, and "Permanent War Threatens Freedoms". I showed you an excerpt from "Unconstitutional" as well today. Hopefully you were able to complete the film study sheet that went along with this video.
