Unit 9 Test - Industrial Revolution and Imperialism

Welcome to the second grading period of second semester.  We have just started the 9th unit of the school year - Industrial Revolution and Age of Imperialism.  This unit covers chapters 19, 20, and 21 in our textbook.

We are scheduled to test on March 4th (A-Day) and March 5th (B-Day).

As always, students will receive a study guide two class periods in advance.  It is strongly encouraged to complete the entire study guide as it is a very good indicator of what will be covered on the test.  Students also have the opportunity to earn extra credit!

Keep at it, spring break is just around the corner, and then it's all downhill from there!
