Board Games

On Thursday, bring your snacks...and your game face! We will be having a board game extravaganza!! Students will draw names out of a hat - whose ever name they draw, they will be playing that person's board game for thirty minutes, we will then switch and begin a new game!

The best part? We will be LEARNING and REVIEWING (for your upcoming quiz) while we are having fun!

Case Study #1: Imperialism in India

We have started our first case study of imperialism, investigating British rule in India. We have been introduced to Gandhi and have studied the idea of passive resistance. Next week we will be going into depth on these concepts.

Don't forget about the quiz coming up on Friday, October 2 covering all concepts so far!!

Imperialism - The Board Game

We have been discussing Historical Globalization, imperialism, and the reasons for imperialism. We have learned many new concepts - we are now applying all of our knowledge and creating imperialism board games. We have been creating games that demonstrates the concepts of imperialism and incorporate all concepts that we have covered so far in the course.

The games coming along VERY well - everyone has been diligent in their work and the ideas have been outstanding! I'm very excited to see the end products.

Remember that the due date for the board games is Tuesday, September 29th!

Welcome!
