September 7

You wrote an OPVL on the Mexican-American War for part of today's class. Have a look on the wiki for the Chicago Manual of Style cheat sheet. It's probably a good idea to have a copy for Monday's class. On Monday we're going to the Library for some IA research time.
We played global bingo for part of the class. You have a homework assignment this weekend: find 25 items from around your house. Make sure that the 25 items are from 25 different countries. Please find items from categories like food, clothing, electronics, family, entertainment, household items and miscellaneous. You'll use the information on this chart and from the global bingo game to make a global connections map next week.
We looked at definitions of history today and talked about limitations in reconstructing history. This discussion led to starting a film study on "Vantage Point".
