American Independence Timeline

You picked up one of two handouts for the American Independence Timeline Project -  MILITARY     or     POLITICAL (you were assigned one as part of a pair).  You then picked up a Chromebook.  We showed you how to access the Timeline Template so you can start working on making your own timeline (a BASIC & INCOMPLETE version as a sample).  In class today, you were shows how to find images, copy the image URL, paste it into the correct box, indicate the source, and provide a caption.

All of these directions are included in the handout (either Political or Military - above).

the tentative schedule for the remainder of the qtr looks like this:

  • T-Th: Complete Timeline - it is DUE by Monday evening (email us your link)
  • Wednesday: We'll show you how to enter your text summaries (you were each assigned 12)
  • Thursday:
    • Thursday (1): WIL 1.6 question is posted.  
    • Thursday (2): We'll show you how to complete your project with your partner and assign your final individual component that will be due by Wednesday.
    • Thursday (3):  Exam 1.2 Make-Up Opportunity for those with an excused absence (or, take it before/after school by Friday morning).
  • Friday: Watch "America, Story of Us: Revolution"
  • Monday: We'll go over Exam 1.1 & Exam 1.2 in class - 60% of the FINAL EXAM is made up of repeated questions from past exams.  The FINAL includes any and all material through Chapter 3, Lesson 1 of the online text...READ!!!
