Week of October 3-14th


Wow--we are really busy in AP Euro.

This week, students are getting a look at the reformation in "full swing," as they view the film, Elizabeth. This film was made on location in many historic sites in England, and it focuses on the reformation and its affect on the early years of Elizabeth I's reign. Students please note the references to the Prince, which Walsingham makes.

On next Monday, we will be taking the Reformation test.
Also next week, we will stop and spend some time discussing the DBQ, a primary document activity which is one of the main components of the AP Euro course.
