Spring Break/Long Term Assignments

Hello, APUSHers:


Here are your spring break assignments. There are mandatory assignments, as well as some opportunities for GEM points.

MANDATORY ASSIGNMENTS.

Please Note DUE DATES. NOT ALL OF THE ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE WHEN WE GET BACK!

2. READ CHAPTER 34. Complete Guided Reading Questions and Chapter ID's. Be Prepared for a QUIZZITO on Chapter 34 on MONDAY APRIL 12th.

  1. CLICK HERE. PRINT the QUESTIONS.
  2. CLICK HERE. You will be directed to a link for all EIGHT of the "America in the 20th Century" Videos. Again, for those of you who do not have a POWER MEDIA PLUS account, you must get one right away!
  3. WATCH each of the videos. As with any lecture, or video, it's a great idea to take notes while you're watching.
  4. Answer the questions, either on looseleaf, or type them up.
It is suggested that you work with a partner to do these. Why not make it a social event? Invite some friends over, get some pizzas, watch the videos together, and answer the questions together. Additionally, if enough people would like to do so, we can do screenings of the videos at lunch-time, or after-school.

GEM ASSIGNMENT:

THE GREAT GATSBY QUEST Get interdisciplinary! Combine language arts and US History, and go the extra mile!
