3. Migration within North America, cooperative interaction, and competition for resources raised questions about boundaries and policies, intensified conflicts among peoples and nations, and led to contests over the creation of a multiethnic, multiracial national identity.

Key Concepts

   led Europeans to develop diverse patterns of colonization.

Class time was spent writing a blind DBQ.  Remember that you are to have Chapter 30 finished by tomorrow.  See you then.

Today we discussed the developments of the 1950s, including the Civil Rights movement.  Reading assignments (for Thursday) are as follows:

1st/2nd Period - 871-881
5th Period - 859-869

It would be a great idea to get some review in tonight for tomorrow's test.  Only one of the prompts on tomorrow's test is on the period from the 1970s to the present.

I've included the PowerPoints used in class from the past couple of days below.
