Form 5 Week 2

Hi Form 5, welcome to Week 2

This week we will finish up Prohibition and then move on to the Scopes trial of 1925.

I am putting together a PPT on the Trial here: https://goo.gl/NeGLeL

Also, here is a podcast episode about the Trial: https://www.missedinhistory.com/podcasts/scopes-trial.htm

And here is an article about the Cold War which might be of interest:

Homework (UPDATED)

We will have our class test on Social Tensions in the USA on TUESDAY (before the debate).

Notes have already been issued last term, there is also a link to them on the sidebar of the blog.

ALSO:
We will plan and prepare for a debate next Tuesday in class on Creationism vs Evolution.

The debate topic will be:

This house believes that creationism is a superior theory to Darwinian evolution in explaining human origins.

We will assign speakers in class. Everyone will need to contribute to the research side of things.

I recommend setting up a common collaborative document via google docs so you can work together from home rather than having to always meet together. I'll show how to do this in class.

Teams:

Creationism = Katherine, Aidan, Skye (speakers); Huzaifa, Millaine, Anokhi, Grace (research)
Evolution = Sahaara, Wangees, Aqeel (speakers); Pasindu, Sanuthmi, Avisha, Dinithi, Hashr (research)
