April 7

Social 20-1

I showed you an excerpt from "Saving Private Ryan" today to demonstrate conditions on June 6, 1944 when the Allies landed on the beaches of Normandy. You can watch the rest of the movie if you have Netflix. We also got our topic assignments for the Unit 2 research project sorted out today. This project is due on May 1st. We'll be going to the library on April 24th (our only research period).

Social 10-1

I started on Unit 3 material today by beginning a lecture on "The Foundations of Economic Globalization", which we will continue on Monday. Please read Chapter 10 this weekend.  It might also be a good idea to print off a copy of the PowerPoint for yourself for Monday's class.
