Tuesday News

Hiya

I have been doing some research on iTunes (uh?) and found some downloads you can get for FREE that you need to watch!!! Granted they are not short, so you need hard drive space to get them all. The beauty is you can watch it from home and not have to stay after school to watch them. 

Go to iTunes University and look up WGBH. There you will see the American  Presidents series. Great great great (did I say great?) resource to help you. You can put them on your iPod or whatever you use (PC is fine alone). These will help you "concept" time and place (SPRITE) what was happening in US History. Remember these are FREE, GRATIS, Zip in cost, don't wait and start to download them ASAP before they take them off. To buy these cost $24.99 because I bought one before I saw it on iTunes (FDR). I lost money :(

Be mindful of the news, 50,.000 jobs will be lost soon, think about the economy and how it is strengthening the recession. 

Be thankful for all you have....

We are going to Nationals in PAAC!

Congrats to our senior team who competed this past Saturday at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and WON! Wooo hoooo they are going to Nationals this April in Washington D. C. yeahhhh... our senior team members were:
Erickson Baniaga, Xuchyll Roman, Isaac Fujikawa, and Jennifer Quach. Great work team!
We had some IB'ers there too! Uzma, Maria and Zach also did great and I can't wait for them to suceed next year! We all had a great time and wish the senior team another victory at Nationals. A team from Hawaii has never won at nationals, so everyone support and help them prepare so our team from JCHS will be the FIRST EVER TO WIN FROM HAWAII !!!!

Lesson
Articles of Confederation, Revist Thomas Paine, Chapter 8-9.... Need Thesis revisions too! Time is running out. At the end of this month the binder check will be chapters 1-12. End of this semester (term 2) will be chapters 1-18 for binder checks...so be prepared. This is a two month warning :)
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah for JCHS PAAC team players!!!

Test Tomorrow!

Hey Guys:



Test tomorrow on the countries: Latin America/Central America (countries only); Canada (provinces and country); Greenland (yeah it is a part of the Americas technically geographically); North America (USA); Caribbean (countries/islands). No capitols, no rivers, no mountain ranges; no Presidents, or no waterfalls! Ok? Wish I had a nickel for all the inquiries I have had on this simple test! JUST BE SURE HOW TO SPELL THEM, no Bank of names!



An IB student made this site (forum), it is not endorsed by me and I have NOTHING to do with it, nor does JCHS. However, I hope it was created for HELPING and DISCUSSING the work for IB students in a productive helpful manner. If you have any problems with it, do not talk to me, talk to Jamie G. http://www.howtosurviveib.bbster.net/

Study tonight and be prepared to have SPRITE ready for Chapter 7 tomorrow.
