Global II: Homework due Wednesday, 11/13

I have uploaded a chart to Engrade that you are to complete for HW and is due Wednesday, 11/13.  You can print it out & fill it in OR you can copy it onto separate paper, the choice is yours.  It is a Word document, not Power Point.

Complete it like you would notes, so use bullet points & not complete sentences.  The "From" column is BEFORE the Industrial Revolution.  the "TO" column is the changes CAUSED BY the Industrial Revolution.  Be sure to follow those directions or you will get the entire sheet wrong. :(

You will find it under TODAY'S date on your class calendar in Engrade.
