In preparation for the possibility that we may have a closure this week, I went ahead and posted the entire set of Chapter 23 and 24 notes. Please check local news and the district website to actually verify that the school is closed! The test is still scheduled for this Friday (February 4th). It may also be a good idea to bring all of your needed materials home (for my class and your other academic classes) Monday and Tuesday night just in case. With any luck, we will have some time toward the end of the week to discuss the next essay format (Change and Continuity Over Time). I know everyone was very excited about it going into this week, but it looks as if Jared Diamond is going to make his appearance early next week. Stay Warm!
