We will go over this information in class one of these days, just a fun little piece of history that I thought you would find interesting.

This will be the Reenactment Project we will be working on, we will go outside on that day depending on weather conditions. This project is worth roughly 200 points, as there are many pieces, leadership points and other parts that all play a role. IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS, you will NOT pass the class.

Please upload a draft of what you have been working on for your project. Thanks! This can be anything, simply upload SOMETHING so that I know you are working on something, and not taking the week off!

Good morning,

For remote learning my class will look the same as when we were quarantined, with a slight change. You will need to tune into the google meet for attendance, and then I will have you work on the project for the length of class. I WILL be in the Google Meet for the extent of the class period, and will be checking in with each group at the end of class to ensure that the work has been completed.

Please use this assignment slot to turn in whatever work you are working on, IF you do not complete the work for this day, you will be asked to turn it in for a future date, DO NOT think this is free time, we are going to get through this!

Please answer the following questions IN COMPLETE SENTENCES. Except for the last one...

This is mostly for people who are quarantined or online : )
Create a political cartoon that is convincing people to join the American Revolution.

What you need:

Drawing with some symbolism and creative elements that grab at the audience's attention
Slogan or phrase that has meaning towards patriotism, American identity or other elements
Write a few sentences that support the argument of your cartoon, what it's trying to convince and how it plans to do that

Please take this and do your best, all of the information is on the lecture that has been posted and the assignments you have been doing in class. This is your first test, so it will weigh for quite a bit, PLEASE make sure you use your resources to study!

Due to the situation we are in, we cannot play the Salem Witch Trials game...yet...
