Welcome back to all of you returning to room 314 and a big welcome to my new students. We will continue to learn and grow while pushing on through our American history course. We will be trying some new things, and sticking to the traditional reading and studying of our content. This trimester we will be taking on more DBQ and Short Answer questions while using the AP college classroom for studying. Remember this course is one in which we try to give you the resources, but much of the work will fall on you to stay prepared for the exam.
MONDAY 11/4--Welcome to 314 with guidelines, procedures and reminders, start looking at Ch 12 and the Jefferson Era, this chapter will have a group assignment on movie poster and explanation, will present on Wednesday and work on it Tuesday in class. Assign reading and note taking over chapter. This trimester we will combine more tests and use quizzes more often where you can use your notes/summary guides. Today will be spent looking at documents and reviewing how to look at them. Ch 12 Reading summary provided with questions. If needed show clips on Adams and Jefferson.
