Weeks of February 27th-March 8th

On Monday, February 27th, students will be doing their DBQ on the Industrial Revolution.

Chapters 24, and the analysis of White Man's Burden are also due by the end of the week (March 3)


Also, students need to finish their internet activity (New Ideas, artists, Sigmund Freud) by March 5th.


AP signups are fast approaching. I have given all students the 6 review sheets that will help them to pass the exam. If you have any intention of taking the exam, you must be reviewing those sheets along with the yellow DBQ sheet that has the terms from former DBQs and also helps and hints about identifying Point of View.
