Social 20-1

I finished off the lecture "Allied Victory in WWI and the Paris Peace Conference" today. If you wanted to find a copy of this PowerPoint, you can find it on the Social 20-1 wiki, under Unit 2 Presentations, and in your Social 20-1 study booklets (pages 107-115). I would highly recommend you to read over Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points (simplified English, and the actual speech that he delivered to the U.S. Congress that he delivered in January 1918). You can find the readings on the Fourteen Points in your Social 20-1 study booklets. I also gave you some small group time to complete the activity "Making Peace" from your study booklets. We went over the answers in class. On Wednesday, March 18th you'll be writing another three source analysis assignment on Unit 2 material. Please make sure that you come and see me during tutorial next week about your Unit 1 WRA I assignments.
