November 26

We looked conservatism in the USA in the 1920s today. I went through a PowerPoint presentation called "Conservatism in the 1920s", this presentation is already on the IB 30 wiki in the Great Depression unit. We also watched a video from the U.S. history series called "The Roaring Twenties". You have a quiz on Wednesday on Prescribed Subject 1. It is a matching quiz with a few other surprises.
We started today looking at the "Impacts of Globalization on Environments" and then transitioned into "Globalization and Sustainability". We started a film study of a NFB film called "Shipbreakers". We will continue this video tomorrow along with the "Globalization and Sustainability" PowerPoint presentation. One week from today, Monday, December 3rd, you will be writing your Unit 3 WRA II Essay. Please remember that your TNC Dossier Assignment is due on Wednesday. Your Chapter 14 Key Terms and Questions will be due on Thursday, November 29th.
Most of today's class was spent watching a video on the Mexican-American War. There were a lot of details in this video that should help you complete notes on causes, courses/practices, events and results of this war. Tomorrow, we'll backtrack a bit and make sure that we have completed understanding of the entire American expansionist movement.
