Jan 22-25


The website will just be weekly updates now with overviews for those who were absent. If you need anything more substation like notes or assignments check with me.

Jan 22-I was back after being sick the end of last week. We reviewed all of the perfect storm of the great depression. We also looked a little at Hoover and his choices. The other thing we read together was about the Business cycle and how they go up and down. Due to spending on credit it went higher than it should of though, which led it to crashing as well.

Jan 23-24-Students worked on a google classroom assignment wed and most of thursday. It is the classroom assignment on the depression. If you turn it in late I will need to know as it has been graded.
The second half of class on thursday I talked about what happens next. Hoover obviously was a disaster and America wanted somebody else. FDR leads america to this idea of the only thing we have to fear is being stuck from doing something. He will push us forward.

Jan 25-Mr Whitman briefly discussed the Bonus Army, Then he talked about the New Deal and how it presented solutions to help with the depression. Some were short term, some were long term, but he set out to solve some of the problems.
