Tape 1, Curie High School, January 13, Division.

Okay, you want to help them? Another one of these is from English.

What? Too many words.

I knew I was gonna lose anyway.

I can't tell you what came up, but I can tell you what.

Anyway.

They said they was cheating, that Curie had made a basket, but they said it didn't count.

I don't know what happened, but I thought.

Because, you know, when I think of the soul, I think of, I don't know, I think of kind of the same thing.

The market soul.

Welcome to the game.

Have a nice weekend.

Everybody have a nice weekend, okay? Let me walk with you.

No? Because I don't want to walk with you.

Okay.

Right on that.

Hello.

I didn't talk to that kid.

I was just like, what? I'm not going to tell you what you're talking about.

I'm just going to let you know.

What? You guys are in the wrong place.

What? What did you say? Take your seats, you little rascals.

Get the gun out of your mouth.

This isn't a really commercial.

Anybody with gum, dumb as hell.

Oh, me.

Jesus.

I'm kind of like this is the...

Alright, you guys should just...

Do what? Um, party party? What? I was trying to talk to you about the game.

I was trying to talk to you about the game.

So, I'm talking about the game.

Okay, no, please say.

Nice.

And you have certain responsibilities and obligations.

We're up to page what? 395? Yeah.

Well, look on the board.

Here's the...

You're responsible for this by Wednesday.

I'm also going to give you a map after half the period is over.

And I know you're not going to be able to finish this map today, but Wednesday it has to be complete.

At least the map without color by Wednesday.

If you have colors at home, break up the old Crayolas and you can color it at home.

I'd say explain.

Don't worry, we'll explain what we're doing in just a second.

No, no, it's just reading the amount of light that's on your face.

So, the film in the camera is adjusted to an amount of light.

So, to get the right color, you have to make sure that the light's correct.

So, he's reading light.

So, he's reading light.

I want those books closed like we always do.

So, close the good book and bring out your notes.

We're going to use the notes like crazy like we always do.

I'm looking for...

Are you listening to me? I'm looking for work well done, accurate work, hopefully, because this is the end of the marking period.

I'm looking for candidates for A's or B's or C's or D's and also F's.

Let's begin.

Question number one.

Now, you are using your notes and I have my notes.

We're going to compare these notes.

Question number one deals with the results of the French and Indian War.

We're looking for the chief results.

Who wants to give us an answer? Mr.

McIntyre.

Chief results was that input of the Indian France and its strong powers in North America and also we also reduced column dependence on the great British so the columns no longer need the great British help to come in.

Very, very good.

We talked about that yesterday.

But how does Spain enter the picture? She somehow figures into the results that the book mentions.

How about some information on Spain, O'Donnell? When she was helping France, because France lost the war, they had to give up Florida too.

To who? To English.

And what else regarding Spain? Not only did the English get Florida as a compensation for losing Florida, how do they make Spain happy? They gave them Louisiana.

France gave them the Louisiana territory.

When you talk about the Louisiana, are you talking about the state of Louisiana? No, the territory.

Well, you are.

Yeah, yeah, you are.

You're talking not only about Louisiana, plus...

No, that's alright, that's fine.

Louisiana plus...

Now listen to this, because you're going to get this in US history.

Our book is not going to deal with Louisiana beyond this point.

This is not a US history course.

But eventually you're going to deal with Louisiana one more time.

And not only are we talking about the state of Louisiana, but what else, O'Donnell? A chunk of territory.

O'Donnell? On the western side of Mississippi.

Right.

How big would you say that big piece of real estate was? Very big.

Yeah, I think your US history book is going to tell you it's about a third of the United States.

By the way, I have a message for Annette Rendon.

Annette, who wants to see Annette? Library wants to see Annette? Leave your books here because I think we'll be back.

And this guy here, I haven't seen him since about September the 15th.

If you can find him, let me know.

Okey -dokey? Okay.

Some definitions, I'm on item number four.

How about the King's Friends? What do you have for the King's Friends? Oh, right.

Members of the House of Commons were sent to bribe in order to face the King in his rule.

What's that verb that you used? Bribe? Yeah.

What's a bribe? When you give money for a cause.

You want him to do something for money.

How would you describe this cause? Does it seem to be a worthy cause? The cause, the word, wow, is a word given out of the money.

Given out of the money.

So who is the one who got the advantage of this deal, giving bribes to a person? Who is the one who instigated the bribe? The King.

The King? Very good.

In order to get what from these people who were bribed? This payoff.

A bribe is like a payoff, isn't it? To get the majority in the House of Commons.

This is true.

The book talks about other words.

This is the same thing.

We're talking about a stamp act, a sugar act.

Mr.

O 'Rourke.

A law.

We're talking about laws.

And how about this law that affected sugar? In Canada? You got it.

So Quebec is an area in Canada.

And we're up against a law now dealing with the province of Quebec.

And you're going to tell us about this Quebec after this meeting? Yes, I am.

One more time.

What's here? We've been at which potential rights of French, Catholic, and Hispanic Canadians bound to be suffered to the Ohio River and Westbrook, to the Mississippi River.

Now you're talking about a big expanse of territory.

We know that Quebec is in Canada today, right? If you wanted to visit Quebec, you'd have to leave the United States and go actually to a foreign country.

But concerning the time in history that we're dealing with right now, and according to what Miss Baines said, she said the borders of Quebec were shut down, I think she said as far as the Ohio River.

Did you say that, Miss Baines? Yes, I did.

As far as the Ohio River.

Yeah, went south to the Ohio River.

And as far west as what other river? The Mississippi.

The Mississippi.

Who can tell me the states that would be included in that territory right now? In other words, if Quebec was still that large, which states in the Union would comprise the province of Quebec? Which modern states in the United States would have to be included in the province of Quebec? Who can do that? You want to do it, Miss Baines? Illinois.

Illinois, talk loud, I can't hear you.

Illinois.

But don't say Illinois.

The S is silent.

Illinois.

I know in Spanish you have to pronounce that S, but this is a French word.

Illinois, Mississippi.

You've got to stay in that area north of the Ohio River.

Michigan.

Michigan.

Maine.

Maine.

No, no, no, you'll be dealing with the English colonists.

Okay, you've got what? Illinois.

You have Michigan.

Who can help her out? You want to take it? Algernon.

Indiana.

Indiana.

Ohio.

Ohio.

I think we got it all.

Can she say Wisconsin? Okay, let's put Wisconsin also.

Okey baby dokey, let's see.

I'm looking at question number two.

I think that question number two deals with the period after 1763.

And it talks about Britain getting tough on the colonists after 1763.

If the book is emphasizing that fact that she was tough on the colonists after 1763, don't you get the idea that maybe she was kind of lenient toward the colonists before 1763? You get that kind of feeling? But now she's enforcing the laws.

She's getting very strict.

She's watching the colonies more closely.

The cutoff year was 1763.

What made it possible for Britain to tighten her controls over the colonies after 1763? Who would like to take it? All you have to do is read from your notes.

Just keep talking.

No, you might just keep talking.

We love the period, we love it.

We love all the women here.

We love my father and my mother.

That's how you run away.

I didn't run away, I just took off for a couple weeks.

That's my 10th period teacher right here.

He doesn't want to see you lose.

That's why I'm trying to see if he'll see me still coming.

Hey, remember me? He's pretty full -sitting.

Doesn't get it all ruffled.

Sometimes you have to read a little bit, he just tells you right there.

What is this going to be on now? Maybe it'll be on Channel 11, I hope.

I think that's six months or a year.

This class is just about over.

When does the class end? How many more minutes in this? About 10 -15 minutes.

Okay.

No, you're on.

You get the idea that you work too fast and you're going to make mistakes.

When I talk too fast I make mistakes.

Did you notice that? I want you to work slowly, carefully and accurately.

I do have crayolas available.

If you get that far you will be able to dig into color.

The colors are your own choice.

All you have to do is explain in the legend how you intend to use those colors.

Do you have any questions, Senator? Do you all know what you're going to do? Everybody understands what he or she is going to do.

I expect some good results on this because you always do good work with maps.

I think you do better work when you do it freehandedly than with the outlines that I give you.

If you have a problem understanding what you have to do with this map, please raise your hand.

One thing that you little rascals usually leave off frequently is the title.

Make sure you get the title in.

That's a cool sweatshirt you got there.

I'm going to show you how to do it.

I'm going to show you how to do it.

I'm going to show you how to do it.

How are you? I'm recording my voice.

That's right.

What do you have to say? What? What do I have to say to who? Anybody.

Just record his voice.

He's going to play it and embarrass me.

What? Y 'all getting me on tape? I want to be on tape.

Because it's my birthday today.

My name is Miko Canty.

And I'm a South boy at Cure Me High School.

You from radio station? He's making a documentary film.

He's making a documentary film.
