Directions: As we complete our survey of the 20th century, you will be responsible for a reading on each topic. Many of these readings cover parts of the topic that we have not had time to explore in depth in class. It is important, then, that you complete each reading as assigned.
Please remember the process we always follow!
Make sure you have
the correct assignment.
Go over the "As you read" at the beginning of the section(s).
Complete the reading, paying close attention to illustrations,
charts, graphs, and other material within the required pages.
Return to the "As you read" and check how well you read!
Reread as necessary.
