Homework:

This is the alternate reading (ch. 38) that is for tomorrow.  Please read and take notes.  We will be discussing the end of the Cold War tomorrow with the documents you will use for the DBQ, so it is a good idea to spend tonight making sure you really have the context for the end of the Cold War.  That will save time on what you will need to do over the weekend.
