Hi all
Lesson - Tue 19th November
Due to last-minute alterations, I won't be in school tomorrow (very sorry!). This now means our next lesson is not until next Monday (25/11) Next week we will spend at least one lesson researching information and sources for Essay #3.
To prepare (so you're not rushing your essay!) you should read:
Textbook (e.g. Corin, Fiehn et al) - Section 4: Was the Bolshevik seizure of power in October 1917 inevitable? (pg.49-66) This section is incredible useful - as well as containing many sources you could use for the essay
Also check out: - Section 3: Was the Provisional Govt. doomed from the beginning? (pg.34-48)
Use the time between now and next week wisely and think what information/facts/sources you might need!
Please ask around when you see the others and let them know I've set this for h/w
Mr Smith
