Global History Review Books

We will begin Regents Review upon returning from Spring Break (April 17, 2012) using the Review Book listed below. While it is not required for students to have the book, most students prefer to have their own so that they can write in it and take the practice exams with ease. Although we have classroom copies they are limited and student will not be permitted to take them home.

You can purchase the book from the publisher directly (strongly recommended) by clicking on the website below . Select "Brief Reviews of Global History and Geography Student Edition", enter the amount "1" for one copy and click "Guest Checkout"

Students should make plans to purchase the review book now (in March) as opposed to April, as every 10th grade student in New York State is preparing to take this exam and this particular review book is quite popular.

Basic Info:

Regents Prep Review Book

PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST.

Global 10 Parents and Students:

Beginning in April we will be reviewing and preparing for the Global History and Geography Regents Exam, which will be given in June. In order to prepare for this exam we will be using a review book from the Prentice Hall/Pearson Education publishing company.

The Review Book will be used for 2 PURPOSES:

1. To prepare students for the Regents Exam

2. To study more recent events and concepts in history that our textbook does not cover.

All students should be making arrangements to purchase this review book. There are three (3) teacher approved ways of purchasing this review book:

1. Ms. Hanemann and Ms. Riordan will have a classroom set available for students to use during prep sessions; all exercises will be completed on a separate sheet of paper instead of inside the book.

2. Barnes and Noble: Click HERE

3. Borders Books: Click HERE

4. Students and Parents can look for the review book on their own using the following information:

Title: Prentice Hall Brief Review: Global History and Geography
Edition: 2010
Publisher: Pearson Education
10 Digit ISBN: 0-13-370424-6
13 Digit ISBN: 978-0-13-370424-2

Students should have the book by April. You are encouraged to order early, as every 10th grade student in New York State is taking the exam this year and may also be using this text for review.

* If you cannot get a copy of the 2010 edition, you may use any edition from 2006 to 2010. Earlier editions may not cover events that may be tested on the exam.
