Monday - We started by finishing the America: The Story of Us episode called Heartland, and turned in the cloze notes for a daily grade. Next, we made more progress on the notes for Industry and Growth in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Finally, we worked on the DBQ which is due tomorrow. I have announced several times that the DBQ is a project and counts the same as a test grade, so do your best work. Tomorrow, we will complete the notes and begin watching the movie Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee and complete some study questions as we watch it. Also, I will hand out some Discussion questions that I want you to think about as you watch. We will have a writing assignment based on one or more of these questions, so stay awake and put away the phones.
Tuesday through Friday we spent watching parts of Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee and answering the questions associated with the movie. We discussed some of the issues surrounding the events, including recent historical events that stem from the events at Wounded Knee. We finished the notes on Expansion and Big Business and took the quiz on Friday. We began the new notes on Imperialism and will continue them next week. The unit test for Domain III will be on Friday, October 16.
