This Week in History (Class)--March 3 & 4

YAY!!!!!!  We're done with the Social Studies grad exam (hopefully forever)! I saw a lot of smiles this morning, so it seemed to have gone well.
So, here's what we're doing for the next couple of days:
1A: Chapter 15 questions
2A: America: The Story of US--Civil War. Write 15 facts! (we'll be missing four people and it wouldn't be very nice of me to finish the chapter, then have the test Monday. Therefore, we'll do 10-4 on Monday and the chapter 10 test will be next Thursday).
4A: Chapter 24 Section 1. Homework: Chapter 24 key terms & names.

2B: America: The Story of US--Civil War. Write 15 facts!
3B: America: The Story of US--WWII.
4B: Chapter 13 Section 2.
**Fourth block--we will attempt to meet in room 120. If we can't get in I'll try to get us into a computer lab and upload the PowerPoint to Google Docs.**
