US History for the week of September 14 - 18

We are coming to the end of Domain 2 by learning about the American Civil War and Reconstruction. We will have an open note quiz on Friday on the Civil War. Students should hold on to all quizzes because most of the quiz questions show up again on the domain tests. Today (Thursday) was Constitution Day, and we watched a brainpop about the Constitution and completed a mini research project about the Constitution. We also studied the Gettysburg Address and translated it into more easily understandable English. We have been working on a DBQ about Reconstruction and will complete it when the students come back after the break. The test on Domain 2 is September 30.
