FEBRUARY 24 - 28

Monday we will be back from vacation. VERY EXCITING! We be heading into our unit on war and WWI and WWII. We will start looking at why we had WWI. This will start with Imperialism. We will get back in the mood of school by working on a map of Africa. We will also be going over the DBQ.

HONORS WILL RECEIVE ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT.

Tuesday will find us taking a few notes on Imperialism. The notes will be found here on Tuesday. We will think about movies like Avitar and compare it to places like India, China and Africa. Here  is a quick video on Imperialism in Africa.




Wednesday we will start an Alliance game. This game will show how the world especially Europe got entangled in Alliances and pulled each other into war.

Thursday we will be getting a visit from Ms. Getchell. She is the Freshmen Guidance Counselor and will be talking about schedules for next year.



While we are being visited here is a good little video on Imperialism. Good overview.



Friday we will be continuing our alliance game. I will be collecting the summary for Chapter 1 and 2 of All Quiet on Western Front.
