Week in Review

American Studies: We completed our studies of the exploration and English colonization of North America. Our learning centered upon a set of questions that are posted here in our class blog. We continued  to learn about the present day through current events reading and blog write ups. The students made connections to the history and current state of Morocco as they wrote about colonization and its effects.

The students will have their exam for this unit either Thursday or Friday depending on their meeting date. They have very clear guidelines as to what to study for their short essay exam. Starting Monday, September 28, we will start the Revolution and Constitution unit.

IB History: We completed the Interwar years unit of study. Students took a Paper 1 style exam in class and have a take home essay exam due when we return to class on Wednesday September 23. The next unit will be on the first on the rise of single party states. We will study Stalin and the Soviet Union.
