APUSH --> Today we discussed the development of "sectionalism" in America during the ante-bellum time period. We discussed the economic development of America during that time period as well. Tomorrow will be the Unit IV Test (Chs. 13-15). This will be the final grade of the 1st Quarter.
SS8 --> Yesterday 11/7 we modeled studying practices in class. We studied collectively, we modeled "study buddy" work, we note-took using the provided notes and we also looked difficult ideas up in the text. Students received a Civil War Era Test review sheet on Monday. The test is tomorrow.
Today we completed our Civil War study. We watched clips on Sherman's March and Lee's Surrender at Appomattox (quite fascinating). We discussed the BIG lessons from the Civil War:
1. It made the USA a "is" and not an "are"
2. It ended slavery in America
3. It demonstrated that states do NOT have the right to leave the Union and disobey federal policy.
4. It showed the industrial strength of the North and the future of America
