Boss Tweed and the Political Machines

SO sorry. My husband's computer has been sent off to be repaired and my OS died on Friday. SOOOO, here is your Quizlet for the Boss Tweed assessment!

If you were interested in what political cartoons were going to be analyzed...

ChromeBooks and Canvas

Hopefully, you guys have all downloaded your apps for Canvas to your phones/tablets outside of school. 

PARENTS!!  Did you know you can see what your students are doing in real time?? Email me and I can "attach" you to your student. You can monitor work - what is assigned, what is turned in (and what is not) and ask questions.  All of this can be done from the comfort of your home - from your smart phone or home computer.

STUDENTS!!!  Life happens. I get it. There are a million and one reasons why you might miss class, most of which are legitimate. BUT, that does not mean you need to fall behind. Even if you miss school, Canvas allows you to keep up with your assignments. If you miss notes, make arrangements with one of your friends to have them send you the notes using the "Share" button on Evernote. The notes you missed will be waiting for you in your inbox. It is as simple as that!

ME!!  I know some people have missed having the assignments up on the blog. I will work to post them in both places for my US History sections. I will also make sure the blog posts make their way to Twitter.

Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

APUSH Ch 14 review

Hopefully this will help until we can get Ch 14 text to play nice!

US History Hour 2

Happy Tuesday! I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend. I am, oh so envious, that you were all able to stay home on Monday! 

Today. We rolled out our Civil War Timeline projects! The assignment is already on Canvas, but you can access it HERE as well.  It is a group project, but you can opt to work on your own. Know this - since you can choose your own groups, there will be no adjustments for someone not pulling their weight. 

There are several sites that are listed on the assignment, but please do not feel limited by them! 

I hope you enjoy this. Be creative! Have fun!

US History Hour 2 - Causes of the Civil War

Morning!  Before we jump too far into the the Civil War, I thought we should take a moment to go back over what actually caused the war.  If you missed today, here is the article and questions.  Remember, Americans sided with their state first and their country after that. It was a very different mind set. This is due TOMORROW! Start the year off on the right foot! Get this done!

Civil War Map Assignment

Welcome to the Second Semester!!

We are not working with Chromebooks today, instead, we are digging out the atlases and colored pencils.

Here is where you can find the assignment for today.
