HW Assignments Week of 12/10

Hello, APUSH'ers:


Here are your HW assignments for the week of 12/3.  As a reminder, Homework:

1. Is assigned ever night, unless stated otherwise
2. Must be completed by the next class meeting, unless stated otherwise
3. Requires a parent's signature in order to receive full credit.  
4. Is essential to your learning, and for your mastery of this course! 

Starting this week, we will be working out of the AMSCO review book, in an effort to facilitate our understanding of the material we've been covering in class.  We'll also be doing some more of the lectures from the Hippocampus site.  The idea is to "flip" the classroom.  Treat the lectures, and presentations as if we were doing them in class.  Simply highlighting text won't cut it!  You will retain more information if you actually outline, and annotate; your scores will be considerably higher, too!  

Resource Materials
