Together in American History, we will explore our exciting past starting from the Age of Exploration and we will end our journey learning about the Era of Reconstruction (after the Civil War). As we travel through history, it is extremely important that you keep my classroom rules in mind. We will have many discussions throughout this semester and it is very important you remember to be respectful to your teachers, your peers, and yourself. My goal is for everyone to feel comfortable expressing their opinions and engaging in constructive conversation.
There may be times when you will need loose leaf paper or a notebook. I recommend adding a History section if you have a binder with paper and a history folder, or you can just have a history folder. You will need a charged Chromebook, pen or pencil, eraser, and wired earbuds.
The following are optional: highlighter, thin black sharpie, and markers/colored pencils.
All of your notes and assignments will be posted on Google Classroom daily. Our textbook is online and you can find the link in Clever. It would be helpful to bookmark links to Google Classroom and your textbook.
