Groups should be close to wrapping up their Post-Mao Paper 1 projects.  Make sure that you share your finished work with me on GoogleDocs.  Don't forget that you are to include a markscheme for your paper - this was described in the project assignment.  I've posted a sample Paper 1 and Markscheme to the post-Mao folder so you can see the format.

On Friday, groups will be assigned a paper to evaluate using this peer evaluation form.  The peer evaluation is due next Thursday.  Read pages 1-18 in your new Cold War book for class on Tuesday.
