December 4

I went through a PowerPoint presentation on "The New Deal" today. As I went through this lecture, you were to fill in accompanying charts. You also had time to look at what critics of the New Deal had to say and complete the chart for this activity as well. The challenges to the New Deal questions and chart are due tomorrow. I also highly recommend that you read Chapter 6 and 7 in the Modern America textbook as well.
You watched an A & E Biography today called "Joseph Stalin: Red Terror", and while this video was playing you should have been taking notes on it. I continued with the PowerPoint presentation "Joseph Stalin and the USSR" today. Tomorrow we'll look at the Five Year Plans in greater detail. By Thursday, we will be starting our examination of Adolf Hitler.
You had the entire class today to work on your Chapter 15 Key Terms and Questions, which are due tomorrow. We also held a vote on whether or not we should have an in-class debate on Thursday, and by a narrow margin of 15 No votes to 13 Yes votes, we will not have a debate. Please see your Unit 3 Final Exam Study Guide below. This test is on Monday, December 10th.

Please make sure that you have read Chapters 10-14. Please make sure that you have the following PowerPoint presentations, and that you study from them:

  • "Foundations of Economic Globalization"
  • "The Expansion of Economic Globalization"
  • "Challenges and Opportunities of Economic Globalization"
  • "The Impact of Economic Globalization on Environments"
  • "Globalization and Sustainability"
Make sure that you have reviewed the Key Terms from Unit 3 (all the terms listed on the Unit 3 Worksheet, plus the extra key terms that appeared in the PowerPoint presentations). The Unit 3 Final Exam will consist of 50 multiple choice questions.
