US History 10 Honors--update (week of 1/24-1/28)
Slight change of plans for next week. On Monday I will do a quick run-through of the War of 1812 (AKA The Second War for Independence) and the upsurge of nationalism. Read chapter 12 this weekend because I plan to come in with a list of discussion questions. We'll plan on doing the chapter test on Thursday. I need to pick up the pace a bit so we can get through everything by the end of the year. If we have extra time each period I will also do some grad exam review. I'm also going to try come up with a "fake grad exam" for everyone to take to see how you do. Expect that some time in early February.
World History 9 Honors--1/21
We had a bunch of people absent today! Here's what you need to know: the chapter 9 test will be on TUESDAY. You may use your "trading cards" to help you with the matching, and you may also use your sections 3/4 study guide. The test is 50 questions (44 matching/M.C., 4 short answer, and 2 essay). Here are the essay questions:
1. Taking into consideration the theories of the thinkers and reformers that we discussed in class, imagine a scenario that would have allowed Britain to industrialize in a more humane fashion than happened. Describe it briefly. In other words, if YOU were in charge, how would you have made it better?
2. Do you think that industrialization has improved the quality of life for most people today? Explain.
To those of you who actually paid attention during the review, THANK YOU. I really appreciate it. You make the class a better place.
