10/24 and 10/25 5th and 2nd Period APWH

I collected the students homework charts from Chapter 7.  We started notes on Chapter 8.  Students need to read pages 183-192 before next class.  We are due for a RQ!!!! Also I forgot to hand the 2nd period student the 9 weeks exam review guide.  I will give them the review guide next class but below are the questions if they want to start on it in the meantime.  The 9 weeks exam will be next week (I'm still deciding the exact date).
