This week is homecoming week, so I will be giving less homework to students since there are so many activities they are involved in each night. I don’t do this often, but I try to consider outside factors when something big is going on in school. The only other time I do this is the week of the musical in early March. Every year it seems that AP students are the ones that are most often involved in EVERYTHING in school.
Monday, 9/24
- Review Video #8 for the first few minutes of class
- Reading/Discussion on the Pueblo Revolt
- Connect to the Encomienda System, how was this a turning point in Spanish relations with Natives? How did the treatment of Natives by the Spanish AFTER this event differ from English relations with Natives?
- HW for tomorrow:
- Part II of Video #8 V.G.
- Video #9
Tuesday, 9/25
- Quick assessment on religion in the colonies
- This will focus on the 1stGreat Awakening, but also reviewing religious characteristics of the colonies (review from previous week)
- Reading/Discussion of “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”
- This is actually part II of the Enhanced V.G. for video #9
- 5-10 multiple-choice question assessment. I’ll be testing next Monday on period 2, so this will give me a good idea where students are at with this time period.
- HW for tomorrow:
- Video #10
Wednesday, 9/26
- Quick review of video #10 PowerPoint
- Like yesterday, we will be working on part II of the video guide in class together
- Once finished, I will review the multiple-choice assessment from yesterday, specifically focusing on any questions that a lot of students might miss and try to figure out why
- HW for tomorrow:
- None
- Tonight is the PowderPuff game that most of the junior class is involved with in some form
Thursday, 9/27
- Vocab quiz on Period 2
- This is the same vocab quiz they took last week, but I will make them write out the definitions this time – I will only give them the terms
- Students will analyze several documents from Period 2. They will be required to summarize the documents, and answer questions about their purpose and intended audience
- I’ll be introducing them to their first DBQ soon so they should be familiar with aspects of HIPP
- HW for tomorrow:
- Period #2 in 10 minutes
Friday, 9/28
- Due to our homecoming pep assembly, we have shortened mods today
- I’ll give the students a 10 question quick assessment on period 2 and we will discuss the answers as a class
- HW for Monday:
- Study for period 2 test
Have a great week!
Adam, You use to have links to your quick assessments do you have them somewhere else now? I don’t see them on the website.
These were very beneficial for my students.
Thanks
Haha so true. I have friends who are in USB , Dance team, and tons of clubs.
