Your WWII on the Homefront in the USA MindMaps are due on the day of our first HL Extra Class (the afternoon of Mon., June 17).
By the way, our HL History Schedule is as follows:
Mon. June 17: PM (12:30pm-3:30pm)
Wed. June 19: AM (8:00am-12:00pm)
Mon. June 24: PM (12:30pm-3:30pm)
Wed. June 26: AM (8:00am-12:00pm)
A reminder that your History IA Research binders are due in when we get back from the break. I know that many of you have indicated that you've managed to gather and compile a wide range of resources, but are only in the initial stages of reading and notetaking. It's time to get down and dirty in the academic research part of the IA process.
Start taking notes and quotes that are related to your topic and that present arguments and evidence that help you answer your research questions. Make sure that you are recording the sources/citations in some type of abbreviated format for every note/quote you use (as this will save you TONS OF TIME later).
Good luck, and I look forward to hearing about what you've learned and researched when we get back from the break. The IA Writing Process will begin almost immediately upon our return.
