Hello -
Today we started with a "pop quiz" (except it's not really a quiz) about the 13 original colonies. Next week, you will see the same assignment again, and you will get a chance to redo it for a better score. If you earned a 13 or 14 out of 14, you are excused from the retake. If you still don't do well, you need to find another time to do your retake. I have linked a blank practice map and an answer key below.
Otherwise, we wrapped up our primary/secondary source lesson today. We reviewed the Mayflower Compact and what makes it a primary source. The good news is, the Mayflower Compact is the hardest primary source you will read all year, so now that's out of the way! Then, we returned to Q1-3 and identified if the sources listed were primary or secondary, or neither. You seemed to do pretty well with that process.
HWK: Bring in a piece of primary source evidence that proves what YOU did this summer. Remember, primary source evidence means it is firsthand knowledge, from an eyewitness, or original to the times. It does not need to be a document - it can be a photograph, a ticket stub, a program from an event, whatever you have!
