REad and take excellent notes on :
Chapter 18, 19, 20 (into the Civil War)
.
I will assign workbook tasks as well.  And discussion questions.  We will
have 4 days of discussion groups when you return.  I will assign you each a question from each chapter to lead the discussion. 
 
This semester will be a big push!  I will be giving more assignments, require
more information on tests, request Decades papers, and give tests and essays that will be time to the minute.  I will post more about this...not to cause anxiety, but to let you know that our expectations will be much higher this semester.  YOu will have to work harder, memorize much more, and prepare for the AP test in May.
 
You will have a study group this semester.
More to come.  I just wanted those of you who wish to get started the opportunity to start the reading before Christmas.
