May 23

Sorry, I forgot to post on the blog yesterday....


You wrote your Social 30-1 Chapter 1-2 Test on Friday. I have marked these tests already, so you can get the results on Monday. You will be writing your Social 30-1 Unit 1 Final Exam on Monday, May 26th. Please make sure that you study for this exam using the study guide below. Make sure that you check out the Social 30-1 review materials on the IB 30/35 wiki for Unit 1. Especially the Social Studies 30-1 Unit 1 Review Prezi when you think you're ready to review the unit.



The Unit 1 Final is a 55 question multiple choice test. It will be written on Monday, May 26th. Make sure that you study the following:
  • Chapter 1 and 2 Key Terms (please see the Chapter 1-2 Test Study Guide for a list of terms)
  • Study the Ideology Notes (Black Gold School District PDF file, on the IB 30 wiki)
  • Study the 19th Century Political Spectrum
  • Study the 20th Century Political spectrum
  • Study the political-economic grid
  • Know the values and ideas associated with the various ideologies (on the 19th century and 20th century spectrums)
  • Study the Individualism and Collectivism booklet (this is on the IB 30/35 wiki under Social 30-1 Unit 1 materials)
  • you need to be able to apply your knowledge and understanding of these concepts/ideas
  • there are a lot of source-based questions on this exam! (there are references to Nazi Germany, the USSR, and other topics that we covered in Unit 7 and 8 last year in IB 20, and from earlier this year in IB 30/35)



We played a Unit 3 Review Game on Friday. Sorry for all of the technical issues with the game. Please remember that you have your Unit 3 Final Exam on Monday. Please see the study guide below.



Please make sure that you have read Chapters 10-14. Please make sure that you have the following PowerPoint presentations, and that you study from them:

  • "Foundations of Economic Globalization"
  • "The Expansion of Economic Globalization"
  • "Challenges and Opportunities of Economic Globalization"
  • "The Impact of Economic Globalization on Environments"
  • "Globalization and Sustainability"
Make sure that you have reviewed the Key Terms from Unit 3 (all the terms listed on the Unit 3 Worksheet, plus the extra key terms that appeared in the PowerPoint presentations). The Unit 3 Final Exam will consist of 50 multiple choice questions.




You wrote your Unit 6 Paper 3 on Friday. You have homework this weekend. Please print off the Stalin reading PDF file (the first document on the chart under Unit 7 Dictatorships) and answer the questions on a separate piece of paper. This assignment will be due on Monday. You'll have a current events quiz on Monday (we didn't have time on Friday), and we'll watch the A & E Biography of Joseph Stalin too.
