Question-Building: October 28, 2015

Today in class, we talked about the nature of conflict.  As we discussed in class, conflict seldom arises spontaneously - there's usually some kind of root cause, if we trace it back far enough.  The main focus of our studies this quarter is going to be the Revolutionary War, and we're starting our studies by looking at the "trigger event" that set us on the path to war.

In order to learn about this event, we're using an activity called Question-Building.  The best way to learn about something new is by asking good questions, but it can be hard to know what questions to ask.  This activity will help you formulate questions that will lead you to a better understanding of this event.

HOMEWORK:  None tonight, but be ready for some homework tomorrow.
