December 2


I went through a lecture on German foreign policy from 1933-1937. You can find a digital copy and the Google Slides for this lecture on the IB 30/35 wiki. I would like you to read pages 141-155 in your The Move to Global War textbook. It also occurs to me that we've been talking about a lot of international agreements lately, so I think you should put together a note-taking chart like the one below.




I gave you some class time to read over the "Modern History of China" section in your course books, and then I showed you a couple of videos from the BBC 20th Century History series, namely, "One Man's Revolution" and "China Since Mao". Your USA-Canada Comparative Government Assignment is due tomorrow. Your Civil Rights Movement Assignment is due on Friday, and your Chapter 11 Key Terms and Questions are due on Wednesday. One week from today (Monday, December 9th), you will be writing your Unit 3 WRA II position paper. You will get the essay question sheet ahead of time once again.


You wrote your Unit 2 WRA II position paper in class today. Hopefully, I will be able to mark them quickly! You will get the Unit 2 WRA I that you wrote last Monday back tomorrow. The marks are already recorded in PowerSchool. Don't forget, you have the Chapter 7-8 Test tomorrow, please see the study guide below.


This test is on Tuesday, December 3rd. It will consist of 20-24 key terms in a matching section, and 3-4 long answer questions.
