Thursday, December 16

Today in class we continued exploring the question, "What caused the Crash of 1929?"

• The following reading packet was handed out yesterday: The Wall Street Crash
• We finished watching American Experience: The Crash of 1929 (follow the link to watch on-line)

HOMEWORK: Read 213-215 of the packet I gave you today in class (also a link to it above). Use the text and sources to answer the following questions in your notes.

• What were the consequences of the Wall Street Crash?
• What were the human costs of the Depression?

I'll check your notes in class Friday.
