Economics-Focus-World

Economics: Today we went deeper into PPF. Great job!  We finished up some analysis problems, and I showed a quick PPT, (you have the handout with the info.  I will post it too), related to PPF. For tonight, please read & Study the Circular Flow information in chapter 2, sec 3.  Due tomorrow also are the Cornell Notes Chapter 1, section 4.  Tomorrow in class we will have the paper products factory.  We will need to use our time well due to the early release.  Remember, class begins at 9:50.

Focus: Today was the last day for this particular strand. Beginning Monday, you go to Mrs. Rosenthaul for the next 6 week strand.  Thanks for being part of critical issues.  I hope you will continue to blog.

World: Today we finished up the Bridging World History Enlightenment clip and debriefed.  We than moved on to another segment of the Renaissance.. Nation building, which is a huge component when considering the effects of the Renaissance.  For tomorrow, complete any necessary reading contained in the Nation States, Reformation & Printing Press Reading. COMPLETE THE ANALYSIS QUESTIONS for credit.

Extra Credit Opportunity: Identify something that is happening in the world NOW that relates to current events as a result of enlightened thinking.  Ie: The Arab Spring of 2011.. Revolutionary Thought.  Be prepared to share your findings with the class tomorrow. (5pts)
