Economics: We finished GDP today. First we debriefed using the work you completed from 12.1 on the handout, then we did an in class GDP participatory activity. Be sure you understand the effects on CGI and X -M on GDP. Nice job with this activity! Finally, I provided additional handouts related to the budget which deal with renting/purchasing a car, and a living space. In addition, I provided a list of items you will need to purchase for your living space. If you were absent, handouts are in the classroom, but I will post them on the website too. For the weekend, work on your BUDGET project. A crisis will occur late next week.
World: In class we finished up the material related to Jews and Women and are now ready to begin the Haitian Revolution next class. I provided examples of the Final Project from past students to provide additional context, so be sure you are making significant strides toward completing the work on your final project. Due date for the project is June 7, and you will present your project to the class via lottery beginning that Friday.
Have a fantastic holiday weekend. Relax a bit and spend time with friends and family. Be safe!
