Great job today! Hopefully the activities we did today were a good reminder/refresher on the content we’ve covered to this point. Remember – all those little slips of paper we organized and considered today make GREAT specific details for SAQs, LEQs, and DBQs. If you liked that process, it’s a great way to review at home, or to go back over your notes — you can find all the terminology (for previous units AND future units!) HERE. (For context, a lot of APUSH teachers require students to complete notecards on each of these terms each unit — the note cards usually require a definition, explanation of importance, and connection to some other fact or term. You’re welcome for not assigning that busy work!) Instead of creating note cards, I would suggest looking back over your notes after you take them and underlining/highlighting/adding any terms from the list. This list is NOT all inclusive – there are plenty of words NOT on the list – but it’s a good starting point.
Speaking of notes — your next QF is due tomorrow!! (QF 13 – Reconstruction)
Next week Monday is our visit from the Architects, Tuesday your novel is due, and Wednesday is your LAST QF for the semester!! We’re winding down — you’re almost halfway done with AMSTUD and well on your way to being a senior!
One last reminder — Essay remediation has to be IN OUR HANDS by 9am tomorrow morning. Absolutely NO exceptions…no flexibility…no explanations. Make it happen.
Have a great night!!
