Special Project: Unit 3 Project 2 Presidents/Effects of War Live Class, 11-1

Post date: Oct 24, 2011 4:34:18 PM

Hi All,

Need some help on the Unit 3 Projects? Many of you are working your way through Unit 3 and may have noticed the two projects for this unit are both essays. The 2 President Project requires you to write a 150-250 word essay comparing and contrasting the views of Jefferson Davis and Abraham Lincoln on the issues of States Rights and Secession. The Effects of War Project is another essay that requires you to identify the effects of war on families. As usual, I have a plan to help you write your essays: I have scheduled a live class at 10:00 am MT on Tue, 11-1 in order to go over each of these topics and give you a plan of attack for your essay. Special Project Credit: Attendance in this live class earns you 50 points toward your 100 point requirement for the Unit 3 Special Project. You can get into the live class by clicking on the following link: http://tinyurl.com/Trehal-s-Office. I promise you whoever attends this class will have a solid plan of attack for their essays in this unit. I hope to see you in class on Tue.

If you were unable to attend the live version of this class you may still get credit toward your Unit 3 Special Project by watching the recording and answering the following question: How many paras do I say each of these essays should be? Also, Identify the body para topics for each essay. In order to receive 50 points for watching this recording, submit your answer to the question and the date that you watched the recording into the Unit 3 Special Project Assignment.

Sincerely,
