Week of November 15th-19th

Wow...we are almost done the Age of Absolutism.

Students should by now have finished the back page on the Rise of Russia.

We will have a brief discussion of the different reforms under Peter the Great, and also have a comparison of Peter the Great and Louis XIV.

We will spend some time on Monday learning about the Battle of Spanish Succession.
On Wednesday, we will begin to learn about the early enlightenment (chapter 18) and on Friday, we will be into the Enlightenment.

Take home assignment alert---we will mainly be studying the Enlightenment, Chapter 19, during Thanksgiving break. This of course means that there will be homework over the holidays...stay tuned.
