Monday, April 26

Welcome back from break, I hope you all had an amazing, restful vacay from school. Here is a picture of stray cats from my trip to Puerto Rico, I hope you enjoy it:

Alright, down to business!!

Homework:
E Period (more hw since I had you long block today)-
Chapter 28-1: Kennedy and the Cold War AND Chapter 28-2: The New Frontier
* I would like to urge you to go beyond simply copying down the Main Idea, Why it Matters Now and Terms and Names and make sure you are taking careful notes from the textbook. For example in Chapter 28-1, although the Bay of Pigs invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis are not bolded for some reason, they are incredibly important events to know.

B & F Periods-
Chapter 28-1: Kennedy and the Cold War. Please see explanation above.

In Class:
We talked ALLLLL about the Election of 1960, and even saw some handy-dandy video clips. Here's a link to the reading we did in class and the short PowerPoint which had questions relating to the reading:
