Week of November 7th-12th
We are knee deep in learning about the Age of Absolutism and the Rise of Parliament..
Students will continue to work on their POA's for Chapter 18.
In class this week we will be reading the play "In a Time of Tulips and Turmoil." Students will have questions to answer, and an evalutation of Saint-Simon's description of the court during the reign of Louis XIV. Students will also take home and open book test due the next week.
Students will also need to view on line the slide show for Sweden and Russia after the Thirty Years War, and fill in the notes.
Because we are going to have a full week off at Thanksgiving two weeks from now, I will be handing out a packet. Students are going to have homework over this week--so be prepared. It, too, will be due when we get back the following week.
