I'm doing things a little differently this week, ladies and gentlemen. We have a lot going on in class, so I am giving you ALL the homework for the week RIGHT HERE, and you can come back to this page when you need a reminder.
HOMEWORK
Assignment #1 - Vocab
For WEDNESDAY, please have your Vocab Sketches assignment (or your alternate choice) done. If you lost/can't find the handout for the sketches, click here. If you lost your vocabulary and key points list, click here.
Assignment #2 - Video
For THURSDAY. Hey, guess what, guys! This homework assignment is only going to take one minute and 29 seconds!! You know how I know this? That's how long this video takes to watch:
If you can't get that to play, here is the link.
If you can't get THAT to play, here is a 6-minute video that goes over the same info, but in way more detail:
Okay, I'm exaggerating a little - once you get finished with the video, you will need to answer TWO simple questions. Here goes:
QUESTIONS FOR HOMEWORK:
How did the cotton gin make it easier to raise cotton for profit? Explain your answer.
Why did the ability to raise cotton for profit lead to more need for slavery? Describe the cause and effect relationship.
How are you going to answer these questions? You have a choice.
You can write/type out the questions AND your answers on separate paper and turn them in to me.
You can put your answers in a Google form - click here to go to the form (you will need to sign into your SAU 16 account).
Also, if you need clarification on abolitionists or the Underground Railroad, you can watch another short video here.
Assignment #3 - Pre-Civil War Learning Check
On FRIDAY, I am going to ask you a FEW simple questions on the five events on the "key points" side of the vocab list. It will all be "w" type questions - who, what, when, where. You will have one question per event, 2 points per question, five events = 10 points total. The link to the vocab list has the key events with it, if you lose that.
