Objectives: Investigate the political and social revolutions that emerged beginning in the mid-eighteenth century.

Task:   After you've recorded the daily objective, please get out your extra credit work, your reading notes, and a pencil.  Clear everything else off of your desk in preparation for the reading quiz.  Please turn in the quiz when you've finished and work QUIETLY on your midterm exam study guide.

After the quiz, we'll spend a bit of time reviewing the "Absolutism and Democracy" DBQ.  Be sure that you check and correct your answers.

Next, you'll join three other people to prepare for the French Revolution video guide.  Each person in your group will complete one of the tasks below:

1. Vocabulary

Listen to the video carefully and be sure to complete your assigned section.  At the end of the video, you'll share your work.  Finally, you'll post a reflection to the "French Revolution Reflection" on the Moodle.

If there is any time remaining at the end of class, please work on your midterm exam study guide.  Please e-mail me with any questions that arise as you study.
