Hamilton Presentations (and written summary with bibliography due)
About the summary:
It's a written-out version of the story you'll be presenting, and it is meant to also serve as the structure for the term paper, should you choose to pick Hamilton (instead of the Sixties) as your topic.

Therefore, it should be a couple of pages long and the bibliography of the sources you used (NOT including stuff you read but DIDN'T use) to put together the facts for your story.

Each PAIR may submit the summary. However, if you are going to pursue the "Historical Fiction" as your term paper, you will (of course) write your own term paper!

Ch 4 Notes Guide
 

Note please that CHAPTER TWO is a broad-brushed overview of the period.

For these chapters, take brief notes, or use the Notes Guide, or outline. 

The NOTES GUIDE starts with a random question # because the author of the notes started with Q1, Chapter 1. The q #s continue to chapter 8, I believe. I renumbered them on the summer reading but I forgot  to do these. Just disregard the numbers.

 I will look for some indication you took notes or used the Notes Guide on these chapters when I collect your (PART ONE) binder (LATER). Notes must be handwritten -- UNLESS you are filling out the Notes Guide, in which case, "type awaaayyy!!"

QUIZZES on Ch 2 & 3: Open Notes! Timed.

 

Prepare these assignments to hand in (except for reading notes). 

ALSO please maintain your Part Six Binder - I'll collect it on (Tuesday / Wednesday) for the "summer binder" grade.

Save your Reading Notes for the Part ONE binder.

When it is returned, re-establish it as Part I (chapters 1-8).

 

 

 

 

 

Ch 5 -  Colonial Society on the Eve of Revolution 1700-1755
Note that we're finally in the EIGHTEENTH Century!!
Homework
from the Seventeenth Century: Find the "Ships Manifests" handout from the week of 9/7. Based on the EVIDENCE you find on each of the two pages AND what you've learned about settlement patterns --  DEVISE a paragraph that makes a (thesis) statement about the differences between New England and Virginia (Chesapeake) settlement.  Prepare to discuss and hand in.


Other Reading -
Handout, Chapter Three "Colonial Society"
 
Parts to skim-(1)  the Travelogue descriptions of the Hudson River, New Jersey, etc. But do pay attention to the "Three Parts" thesis of American settlement: New England, the Middle Colonies, and the South. They differed in Politics, economic production, and to some extent in social structure.
(2) - health and medicine - completely leaves out the important role of midwives and takes rather a "modernist view" of the Trained Physician as the One True Health-care Provider.

AN IMPORTANT part of this section is its discussion of the resentments of  the Eastern bankers and traders by the Western frontierspeople. The disagreement about the circulation of MONEY will continue to be a sore point all the way through the 1800s. Learn about it NOW!!!
 

9/11-12

We'll spend two class days.

 

 

 

(Note: White day: Ch 6 is due FRIDAY!)

Ch 5 Notes Guide Note that we're finally in the EIGHTEENTH Century!!

  1. ANSWER THE PROMPT – use "Essay Skill" categories   to dissect the prompt. (Write at the top of your essay outline.)
  2. Use your knowledge and your textbook as a reference to OUTLINE a response.  Possible categories for organizing your outline: Economic, Social, and Political . Note that the prompt says "distinct SOCIETIES."  You may have a different set of categories.

Notes: You must take SQRRR reading notes! I will expect to see them in your binder on exam day. INCLUDE the "Examining the Evidence" page about Women's inclusion in the revolution, and the  "Makers of America" section on The Loyalists.
EXCEPTION: Those students who have not scored well on quizzes so far must do the following:
White day students: SHOW ME your notes by FRIDAY 9/22, 3:30 PM.  (See below for what to include**)
Red day students: SHOW ME your notes by MONDAY 9/25, 3:30 PM.  (See below for what to include**)
    **Your notes pages must include ALL HEADERS (questions) to the end of the chapter. Your written responses must be completed  to at least p. 152, including "The Loyalists" section.  Notes should be taken by hand unless you have a compelling reason not to write them (see me to explain...) SCAN your notes if you have made prior arrangement with me to send via email by Friday evening.

EXTRA CREDIT HOMEWORK:  Use the "road to revolution" worksheet to fill in the Part B "Significance of 1763" worksheet. At the end of the lesson, you will have a THESIS statement. Turn in the worksheet next class.

Doc Analysis

 You may certainly download the "old-style"  notes guide.  But you must [also] use SQRRR.

Yikes!!! What am I to do with the "evidence" and "makers" pages???!!??

Calm down, my child...Luckily, there is a question already made for you at the start of the paragraph on the "Evidence" page, and some other questions further down designed to help you consider and  formulate your response and even explain "why" in just a sentence or two. Or maybe three.
    For the Makers pages, there are no bold headings! But the topic sentences seem tailor-made to be easily turned into questions.  Whew!   What luck !!!
