We continued our examination of the Great Depression today with a focus on Roosevelt's messaging regarding the New Deal in the first two of his Fireside Chats, followed by an analysis of public response to the speeches in the form of letters to the President.  We ended the day by interpreting some political cartoons and comparing the media response to the general public.  

Chapter 26 was due today, but you are still responsible for that material tomorrow.  In addition, chapter 27 is due tomorrow.  I will be out at the doctor, but you will be starting your exploration of the causes of World War II, which I will continue when I return Thursday.  We will also be talking about how to write DBQ essays a bit more.
