For the upcoming week, I have listed a tentative set of
assignments. Hopefully, this will help both students and parents to
plan their study and homework sessions accordingly.
Monday: Read pp. 140-144 in Textbook. Complete "Terms and Names,"
and "Critical Thinking" #4 on p. 144
Tuesday: Reading of an in-class handout pp. 50-56. Complete "Review
and Using the Lesson" p. 52 (#1 only) and p. 56 (#1 and #3).
Wed: Blog Assignment: Was the 3/5 compromise the best possible
solution to the issue of slavery?
Thu/Fri: To Be Determined.
In addition to these assignments, our first exam is tentatively
scheduled for Friday October 12th. The exam will cover the
foundations of America's government, from colonial times through the
constitutional convention. It will consist of roughly 25-30 short
answer questions, and one essay question.
The following website has all of the material that will be on the
exam:
