Homework Monday, Nov. 28

Today we began learning about the Cold War. We began taking 2-column notes from page 168-169. Go to the link  in the blog above and use your login from the front page of your agenda to finish your assignment. Each highlighted word or section heading is a topic for the left column. In the right column you should write at least two details about the topic. Think about the questions Who? What? When? Where? Why? How? as you give details. 

If you can't access the website, plan to come early to my homeroom to use the in-class textbooks.
