Course Notes and Power Points
May 15th
Today we finished up Chapter 8 with some more exciting things. We went over the end of the Cold War and several conflicts that occurred during our time period. The homework is to read pages 273 (Air India Tragedy), 276 (Disgrace in Somalia), and 278-9 (War in Afghanistan and Iraq). These sections are not on your quiz and I don't believe they will be on the provincial so you don't have to take notes on them if you don't want to. It just might be interesting for you to read them. With the time left over in class we will do those readings or finish up our political cartoons.

Today we went into the economics of the 1980s and on, jumping into fun topics like recession and free trade. Again, we discussed some political cartoons. If we didn't get to it yesterday, we will finally get to drawing the political cartoons. And if we did get to drawing our own, we will either finish them up or write a short paragraph explaining them.
