February 26 - Europe Map Test and Introduce Imperialism

Hello ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome and great to see all you beautiful people!  Today in class we will be taking our Europe Map test!  This one is more challenging than North America, simply by virtue of being less familiar.  I hope that you all have spent some time studying!  After the Test we will get down to business with our next major unit which will be to examine some of the history of colonization and its impacts on Africa. This is one of my favorite units for the year!  Below you will find our agenda, homework, and resources for the day.

Objectives:

1. Locate and identify political and physical features of Europe
2. Skim and scan a college level text to better understand the theories of Jared Diamond

Agenda:

1. Europe Map Test
2. Introduce the Age of Imperialism Notes
3. Reading Activity: Prologue of Guns, Germs, and Steel

Homework:

1. Imperialism Maps due Monday
2. Current Event #7 due Monday
3. Africa Map Test March 18

That's all for the day folks!  I hope you feel good about your performance on the test!  I am looking forward to diving into this content more with you all!  Take care and have a great evening!

Live long and prosper,

Mr. Marchetti
