Update Feb. 24

Bellwrite: What have you learned thus far from our simulation game? (about colonialism, industrialization, economics, human nature, etc.)

Students turned in their Family Present assignments and took a final reading check for Pride and Prejudice. They also turned in their two word webs from last week.

We continued and finished our simulation game. Students learned about mercantilism, tariffs, the role of colonies towards an industrial mother country, and balance of trade.  Students turned in a reflection on what they had learned from the experience.

Homework:

• Continue working on the Family Past assignment.
• Read, annotate, and understand the handout on Adam Smith.
