Social Studies 8 - Today we continued our discussion on the 1850's and how it was a decade where the country was tearing apart.  Students completed a quick (2-3 minute) reading quiz on section 3 of Chapter 16.

Tonight's HW - Read Section 4 of Chapter 16 "The Republican Party Emerges," page 473.

APUSH - Today we started class with a little School House Rocks on the "Shot Heard Round the World."  Students worked with partners to investigate how it was possible the 13 Colonies defeated the mighty British in the American Revolution.  After 20 minutes of investigation we reconvened as a class and discussed.  

Tomorrow the first 4 presenters will present and we will have our Unit II Key Terms Quiz.
