KCC -- Friday 4/17



Here I've shared 4 posters from our classroom...to what theme from our Global Issues unit do these connect? (If these pics aren't showing up correctly for you here, I've loaded a doc in Google Classroom that has the same 4 images.)

Please notice that your Chapter 21 or Chapter 22 notes (it was a choice assignment) were returned to you in Google Classroom with scores; they were also entered into Power School.  A set of the complete notes for each chapter will be shared in Google Classroom next Tuesday so that everyone ends up with a set for the chapter they didn't do themselves.  (Double the notes, half the work.)  I am intentionally allowing a few days to pass before posting those notes so that a few kids can get caught up and hopefully earn points for the work before then.

Please note that colleges are not operating exactly the same as K12 schools, and so, while instructors are to be mindful of students' potential distress right now, some appropriately-leveled work is to continue and scores taken.  If you are having unusual circumstances of any sort that are making it difficult for you to do this coursework, please be in touch with me so I can accommodate you appropriately.  I'm here to help.  ; )




There are two items of new work today.  First, I want you to use my answer key to edit as needed your already-scored-and-returned Google Classroom assignment "Compare/Contrast Crash Course & The Necessary War" so that you are certain to have accurate and complete information moving forward.  (The grade was a completion grade this go 'round, and you will need accurate answers for the Unit-Closure Work Page, writing, and exam)  Please post any questions of clarification you may have directly in Google Classroom in the comments area under that assignment post.

Second, begin work on your next assigned chapter of reading from the Henretta text (white book) -- choose either Chapter 23 or Chapter 24 -- due in 1 1/2 weeks on Tuesday, April 28th.  (Ch. 23: p.665-top of 670, 673, 676-677, top of 678, 682-692.....OR.....Ch. 24: 694-700, bottom 1/3 710-714, bottom 719-724.....~19 pages each).  Like last time you may either type your notes or you may write them and then upload pictures.
