Some important info...
We are wrapping up our introduction of exploring the four basic forms of government, and will move into a study of the French Revolution. From there we will look at the Russian Revolution in greater detail.
We have also started our work on modern art. If you have not selected your artist and painting yet, you will do so on Monday, 11/10. The forms we have gone over (or will on Monday) are now in the shared data drive (under sshirley, modern art materials) as well as on my school website page under files/documents. You will get more information about the project (the first stage of it anyway) on Monday.
