11/25/13 AP World History

Students took a quiz and finished taken notes on Chapter 10 today.  Over Thanksgiving break the students need to read all of Chapter 11.  They also need to complete a chart that will be collected the day we get back from Thanksgiving break.  They need to be able to explain the "Region/Dates, Rise, Political System, Social Features, Internal and External Relations, and the Decline" of the Maya, Aztecs and Incas.  This chart counts as a homework grade.  Another homework grade is to read pages 320-322 in the AP reader and answer the 2 questions from the footbinding section.  Students can also begin to work on their review sheet for the test that will be given the week we return from Thanksgiving break.  The test covers Chapters 8-11 and the questions are below:
