For this week, we will finish up the last section of chapter 13 on Monday and start reviewing for the test. The test is schedule for this Thursday, the 31st. The test will cover chapters 12 & 13. Tuesday, is our library day. This means there will only be a brief review for the test on Tuesday. We will continue reviewing for the test on Wednesday and take the test on Thursday. Friday we will do an introductory lesson on chapter 14, with a focus on the new inventions of the 1800s. Students should also be prepared for a notebook/timeline check this Tuesday.

For this week we will continue to work out of Chapter 13 of the textbook. The focus of Chapter 13 is the Opening of the West and Manifest Destiny. This Tuesday we will start off with section 2 of the text and a look at Texas Independence. We will continue on throughout this week with sections 3 and 4 (The Gold Rush). The test for this chapter will be planned for next week. I’ll give an exact date out on Monday the 28th. There will be a new Timeline Entry this week #16. We will also have a timeline entry notebook check this week, for entries 13, 14, & 15. See the Homework/Project page for details.

We will be working in Chapter 12 of our textbook. The focus of this chapter is the Age of Jackson. All three sections look at the impact this Tennessean’s presidency had on the U.S. There will not be a separate Chapter 12 Test. This short chapter will be combined with Chapter 13 for our next test. We will do a review close out of this chapter on Wed, then continue on with Chapter 13 sections 1 & 2 for Thursday and Friday. We will also have a new Timeline Entry this week. Please see the “Homework/Project Page” for details.

For this week, we will continue with Chapter 11 of the textbook.

The focus of this chapter will center on The Industrial Revolution and its wide ranging impact on American (World) History. For Monday and Tuesday of this week we will start a review for Chapter 11. Students should expect the Chapter 11 Test on Wednesday. For Thursday and Friday we will start an introduction of Chapter 12 and begin work on section 1, “The Age of Jackson.” Students should continue working on their past assigned timeline entries. We do have a new timeline entry for this chapter. See the Home Work page for more info.
