We examined the
League of Nations today, and we'll continue this topic tomorrow. You were also assigned your
Prescribed Subject 1 duotangs today. If you missed class today, you'll need to get one of these duotangs from me tomorrow. If you missed class today, and you missed an assessment that happened last week, you'll need to write it tomorrow.
We watched part of
"Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam" today. I did a homework check on your
Chapter 7 Key Terms and Questions as well. Your
Vietnam War Assignment is
due on November 15th (Friday). Please see the
Chapter 7 Cold War Exam study guide below.
It is a multiple choice test with
70-75 multiple choice questions. You will write this test on
Tuesday, November 19th.
Please make sure that you have read Chapter 7. Here are some other study tips:
- study "The Origins of the Cold War (ppt)"

- study notes on the Korean War
- study notes on the Cuban Missile Crisis
- study notes on the Vietnam War (see notes package and Vietnam War booklet, and the notes that I sent to you on the Vietnam War)
- make sure that you know all the Cold War Concepts
- know the chronology of events of the Cold War (study the Cold War timeline and the Vietnam War timeline, and the end of the Cold War timeline that I will be giving you in subsequent class)
- know key events that we've emphasized in class (for example: Berlin Airlift, Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam War) plus other key events from the timeline
- know major arms reduction agreements (bilateral agreements and multilateral agreements), please study the notes that I will give you next week on this topic.
- know about the formation of alliances (NATO, Warsaw Pact) and the formation of "spheres of influence"
- anything that I gave you as a handout is testable material and should be reviewed!!

Most of today's class was spent watching the
CNN documentary "Scream Bloody Murder" which should help you to understand contemporary examples of genocide in the 20th and 21st century. We'll finish this video off tomorrow. We should be able to get into our case study of the
Rwandan genocide this week as well.
