By now, you should be using your review book on a regular basis.  We've only got two weeks before the exam, so putting forth a decent amount of effort on your own is critical to getting a good score.  We've got a review session here at MHS on Sunday afternoon at 3:30pm (5/5) and we will be working through released multiple choice questions.

HW that's due for Monday's class meeting: Ch. 17 Vocab.

See me with any questions or concerns!

HW 2/4

Homework tonight:

Read Chapter 11 in the book.  Pages 322-350 and do the key terms.

Congress by the numbers...

A little less exciting and cool than paint by numbers, but here is a great rundown from CNN of what the new (current) Congress looks like:

HW due on 1/14

Read pgs. 176-208 and do the definitions.  You should take notes as well, but these won't be collected.

HW

Hey guys, so apparently my last post didn't get posted.  I wasn't aware of that until running into one of you in the hallways today.  NO WORRIES.  I'll give you the book assignment tomorrow morning and we will have it due on Monday.  Have a good evening!

Hope Winter Break is going well for all of you!  If you're bored, take a look at this Washington Post article:

Many of the policy discussions going on in DC right now should/could be informed by this data.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!  :)
