Description
Please read all attached files below for Documents in American History Part 2. Notice, most of them are short instruction sheets, while "Primary Source Handouts," contains the reading material for the whole quarter.
 
For each unit of this class you are required to read the primary source reading, answer the questions, and copy the chapter notes in order to be prepared for the unit exam.  For the unit exam, your job will be to write a short response (at least one half page) that explains how the primary source reading helps you better understand the period from World History that the unit is aligned with, and how you feel about the main point of the primary source reading.  For example, "How does Senator Beveridge's address help you better understand the Age of Imperialism (World History, Chapter 11 & 12) and how do you feel about his main point (that the United States needed to acquire new territories)?"  Each primary source is quite different; it will be your job to figure out its main point and whether you agree or disagree.
 
Also, the Geography portion of the class can be understood by opening the file below titled Geography Assignments.  These assignments will be due every two weeks.  There are a total of four geography assignments.
