WORLD HISTORY SEMESTER II

Greetings and welcome to Second Semester of School Year 2011-2012.

There are a multitude of purposes for this website.

1) Students can check homework (HW)
2) Parents can check homework
3) Students (especially absent) can find out about what happened in class.
4) Parents can get a sense of what is going on in class.
5) Students and parents can find out about upcoming exams, quizzes, projects, etc.

While this information can be helpful, parents and students should NOT ONLY rely on this portion of the website for information pertaining to World History. Students should:

a) Attend class and pay attention to instruction
b) Exchange phone numbers and emails with more than one trustworthy student
c) Start a class blog to communicate about class matters (students have been doing this for the past few years now)

FOR NEW STUDENTS

A) Mr P's Class Syllabus

B) Check out Technical Thompson's Website (P-Alumni Student Class Website)

C) Missed the First Few Days? Forgot some stuff? Want to know the basic of Mr P's class?

Due to various restrictions like lack of time, no budget for secretaries and website masters, as well as a need to attend to personal matters, Mr. P does NOT always have this portion of the website updated. He tries his best. Yes, not very far back in history there were no such thing as websites and whatnot. Mankind has survived for thousands of years without the internet and other technological 'wonders' and I suppose we can continue to do so. Think of this website as an 'extra' and not a necessity. Regardless, I hope that you still find this portion of the website helpful this year.


2nd SEMESTER GEOGRAPHY MINI-UNIT

Get studying your geography!

Below are a variety of Geo Related Power Points and Worksheets to prepare you for the Geo Exam on Thursday February 24, 2012. More information about the Geography Exam and Geo Unit will be given in class.

1) ULTIMATE GEO POWERPOINT - This pretty much has it all. This is used in class, great practice exams & lots of info. This big file will take a few minutes to download.
2) Religions - Maybe not on Ultimate Geo Power Pt, so check it out here.
3) Population Density - Maybe not on Ultimate Geo Power Pt, so check it out here.

Colorful Map Packet Study Guide
- These are scanned map packets done by legendary students Grace Cho, EriKa Roos and Connie Chen. Be happy here folks! You do NOT have to spend the time coloring in and identifying locations on a blank map packet thanks to these girls. So use that time to study study study! You can use this power point to study geography locations and statistics. Mr P highly recommends using this to study for the Geo Exam. If you cannot download it, then bring a USB to class and copy off the student computer. Or have a friend download and send it to you via email. Good luck!
