Welcome, Class of 2015!

Welcome to Global B, Class of 2015! I am excited to get to know each of you and look forward to our year together. As you know, the primary goals of this course are to help you grow as readers, writers, and global citizens. This blog is here to help you along the way. I will upload PowerPoints, notes, and extra credit assignments to the blog, and I encourage you to use the resources here to help you prepare for assessments. Additionally, you are encouraged to use the blog as a way to professionally communicate with your classmates about the material in Global B. As always, please contact me with any questions or concerns.

Best,
Ms. Doak
