Teacher Post

 Sooo

Tonight you are watching Netflix (I hope you have an account).

The show is called History 101

Season 1

Episode 3: The Rise of China

Please answer the following questions:

According to the video,

1. How does Chairman Mao Zedong ensure the Great Leap Forward gets support?

2. What allows the Chinese economy to double between 1980-1990?

3. Economic and Political freedoms do not go hand in hand in China. What is the death toll of the 1989 massacre in Tiananmen Square? 

4. In the 1990s, 8% of China's GDP comes from what singular market?

5. Outside of China, where is China striving to bolster its economy?


Also, it was expected that you would have completed your readings from pages 326-339 on China and completed all of the In Review questions . No one did. 

Me: 


That said, you WILL have them done for tomorrow. We will review them tomorrow. Get them done for tomorrow. Step ya game up tomorrow!

See you tomorrow.

A Loconte Post


A Few Reminders 

1. Your song for WWII must be 'performance ready' for Monday. Don't forget to reread part two. This is the rationale doc. I will take these via email (no need to print) but I will NOT take them late. 

2. If memorizing all the little details of History is proving to be your undoing, please consider checking out this podcast I recently listened to. If will be helpful not only for my class, but for classes after high school too. 
Listening to the whole podcast will be helpful but if you can only listen to a portion. Start at 24 minutes, it's all 'helpful tips and tricks' from there on out.


3. Current Events Quiz on Monday.

4. Read pages 145-146 in Global Forces: The Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere



 I don't watch your show but I did at one time love a magazine Adbusters. I went to the library yesterday and this was their magazine cover. Figured it was my attempt at a relatable meme.

 Hello Gentlemen.

Here's a reminder of tonight's homework. Listen to this: revisionist history podcast and answer the following questions.   Remember to briefly look at a constitution and decide which philosophy it is modelled after. Be prepared to share an excerpt with the class. 

  1. What are the 3 types of R.H?

  2. When did we get ‘serious’ about accurate history?

  3. Who ‘spearheaded’ accurate history?

  4. When was the age of historical consensus?

  5. What are the 4 lenses of viewing history?

  6. What was the most relevant or interesting podcast point(s) made? We will discuss this tomorrow and see how they may help in this class.
