Post WWI

Today we raced through two chapters of text.

We started with a reintroduction of the course objectives and encouraged to apply the questions to any and all historical content we are exposed to.

After reading the introduction of both chapter 26 and chapter 17 we shared what we expected to be the content of each of the chapters. We then were assigned a single subsection of text for which we were responsible for sharing. We had to read the entire section of text from which our subsection was a part. We then prepared a short presentation of that content and which question we thought the content would best serve as a response for.

At the end of the class we were given out final exams. Each of the exams were scored by two teachers. We will use the exam scores as a starting point for the remainder of the school year. Our objective will be to be able to respond to all of the course objectives clearly and with sound support from US History.
