AP World History Week 29

Good evening Roadrunners and welcome to week 29!

This past week we began our final unit of the textbook. The unit on Globalization is laid out more thematically, focusing on the increase in global migration in the twentieth century, along with cultural diffusion and identity in an increasingly globalized world; we also covered environmentalism and our impact on Earth.

We only have a couple more readings to do and we’ll have gotten through our textbook. The rest of the week will be devoted to unit/chapter test and begin the process of “skilling and drilling” for the AP Exam.

What’s New with Dudek?
It was my brother’s wedding in Illinois two weekends and my kids and I were in the wedding so we flew out Wednesday and stayed with my mom. Did a bunch of projects for my mom: Installed a couple new light fixtures, garage door keypad, few new outlets, hung up some pictures and curtain rods, etc. The kids got sick on Thursday, Amanda got sick Friday, Mom got sick Saturday morning, so naturally I though I avoided it when I woke up feeling fine Sunday. How wrong I was. Sunday was spent camped out in the bathroom, Monday on the couch, flight got in just before midnight Monday night for me to wake up and come to volleyball practice. Fun times. This weekend saw me doing a lot of babyproofing after our littlest climbed out of her crib.

Have a great week Roadrunners!
Mr. Dudek
