Week’s Plan 10/19- 10/24

This is my last week with "A" group until the beginning of the semester. All make up work needs to be done by Friday.

Mon: North Carolina as the "Rip Van Winkle" State. HW RSG 12.1, 12.2

Tues: Continue the decline and begin the Reform of NC HW 12.3

Wed: Reform in NC and the State Constitution of 1835 no HW

Thurs Slavery in NC HW RSG 13.1, 13.2

Fri (Half Day): Review of the term.

Extra Credit: I am happy that so many people have done the extra credit already. It seems like the students are really enjoying it. Don't forget all extra credit is due Friday NO EXCEPTIONS. The Battleground museum closes at 5 PM. The Park closes to cars at 5 as well. People are still allowed to walk the park until sunset. It may pay to do some internet research on some of the questions so that you can get through quicker.

Thank you,

Alan Schubert

New Links for Worksheets

Apparently the school's web is unreliable so I have reposted the worksheets. These are in a picture format so the best thing to do is to download them and then print them. I am sorry the last link failed.

Let me know if you need any more help. Remember the "contact me" page sends to my personal email that I check at night and on weekends.
