Finally!! Friday!! Phew!!

Socials 9

  • Chapter 3 test on Wednesday 10th on the French Revolution. 
  • The first Tuesday back will be a current events quiz (for bonus only) and we will watch a video on the French Revolution for review. 
  • I handed out two review sheets (one crossword and one fill in the blanks). This is for you to complete if you want but  I will not be checking these.

  • We took the Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism of ch. 9 and divided it into sections to read in groups. Each group then began to report back to the class on their section. In this way we understand what Winston is reading without having to read the whole book ourselves. We didn't finish this task and so will continue upon our return.
  • We also need to read chapter 10 for homework and complete Journal #6 (your choice from the Journal package).
  • Expect a quiz on Pt 2 when we get back next week. It will be 15 questions and 1/2 of those will be multiple choice.
