We wrote a current events quiz at the beginning of class today. Over the Easter long weekend, I strongly suggest that you keep up with the news. We finished off our look at the Congress of Vienna today. You will be tested on the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Age and the Congress of Vienna on Tuesday, April 10th. Please see the study guide below for the
Unit 5 Test Study Guide. It is recommended that you check out the IB 20 wiki, Unit 5 section, as there have been some PowerPoints added and links to other notes that might help you prepare for Tuesday's test.
