World: We finished up the food aspect of the Colombian Exchange today, and moved on to Slavery. You received guided notes which we guided as well as a Cornell note taking document which is due on Monday. (20.3) For tomorrow, begin reading Ch. 20.3. Review today's content and be mentally prepared to view a 7 minute clip of Amistad. There may be some class time tomorrow to work on your Cornell notes. If you have not answered the big comparison question within the guided notes, please do. We will use that as a discussion opener tomorrow.
Please expect a quiz late next week or early the week after.
