Welcome!

Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year!  We all are very excited to be teaching world history.  

Here is a look at what's to come this year...

First Semester

First Quarter:

Unit 2: Greco Roman World (Approx. 15 Days) –Ch. 4, 5
Unit 3: Middle Ages (Approx. 17 Days) –Ch.9, 10

Unit 5: Renaissance and Reformation (Approx. 12 Days) –Ch. 12

Second Semester

Third Quarter:
Unit 7: Monarchy to Democracy (Approx. 12 Days) –Ch. 14, 18
Unit 8: Economic Progress (Approx. 12 Days) –Ch. 19, 20, 21
Unit 9: The Great War (Approx. 9 Days) –Ch. 23

Fourth Quarter
Unit 10: Totalitarianism and WWII (Approx. 18 Days) –Ch. 24, 26
Unit 11: The Realignment of Nations (Approx. 12 Days) –Ch. 25, 27, 28
Unit 12: The Modern World (Approx. 15 Days) –Ch. 29-32

There will be a test at the end of every unit (three per quarter).  The semester finals will only be over information learned that semester.  So our final exam in June will only cover information from late-January to June, not the entire year.

If you ever have any questions or concerns, please email us!
