Wednesday; 10-13-10

Today bruns is gone, so we have a sub and further delay in ch9 presentations.

thus, a free day to either put finishing touches on our presentations, or to work on our assigned blogs for this week. and think i'll be doing both.

shannon and i watched the finished version of the video we made last week, and its really not too bad. not really funny like the other videos we've seen so far though.

gotta find out if ethan and prichard got their parts of the powerpoint done. still got that backup just in case, but not for ethan. he's got to get going. so while they work on that, im gonna do some research on my assigned blog, which is #13 in ch10, Outcomes/effects of the Spanish-American War(350-351).

so, here we go:

One major outcome was the Treaty of Paris (1898) - which marked the end of the spanish empire and began America's colonial power - temporary control over cuba and indefinite colonial control over Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philipines. the usa paid spain 20 million dollars for these islands.

Helped unite the united states citizens- black and whites from north and south fought together against a common enemy - also marked america's entrance into world issues.
