Daily Slides – AP Psych & IB History
For my 7th Grade Colleagues
My blog is being overhauled to suit my new position as an IB teacher at Campbell High School. If you’ve been following my blog for 7th grade lesson ideas, those posts are not being deleted. Just look for them under the “7th Grade” category.
I still have plenty of 7th grade videos on the YouTube channel, and will continue to maintain the 7th Grade Social Studies video website.
Last Quiz of Year is Wednesday – Study!
Economies of Japan, India, North Korea, and China
Here is a review of the Economies we have been studying this week in Unit 12.
Governments of S&E Asia
Here are the discussion notes for the first part of Unit 12. You’ll need these for your “Government Matrix” graphic organizer. Yes, the sneer on my face on the thumbnail is justified. 😉
Study for the Unit 11 Test
Our Unit 11 Test is scheduled for this Friday. Here is Mrs. Nolasco’s study guide review video to help you prepare.

Here is a video where I summarize our lessons about Communism in China and try to put it all into context.

Duck & Cover for the Cold War
This week we learned about how the Cold War affected history all over the world. While the advice in this Duck & Cover video became obsolete with the development of hydrogen bombs, it is still a cool way to look at our past, and the experiences and fears of people living in the 1950s.
