The last homework assignment of the semester! You are half-way done! Don't forget to cruise over to my other blog www.akers-scs.blogspot.com for lesson plans and a preview of the exams.
I really enjoyed reading your posts on last week's assignment. Good job guys! So far most of you have done an excellent job of keeping up with your assignments and giving your best effort. It's appreciated!
Now here's this week's assignment: Having covered the formative years of the United States (exploration through pre-World War I twentieth century) I would like you to A) nominate and exlain your choice for "Most Important American not named Washington, Jefferson, or Lincoln". Looking back through your notes, who stands out to you as having the greatest impact on our nation? Do some research to back up your assertion (and, of course, cite your sources). I would also like you to B) identify an event in US history (the part we've studied) that you would be most interested in participating in, if that were possible. Why does it interest you? How would you have worked to influence its outcome?
Remember, 200 word minimum with at least two responses to the posts of others (responses must total 150 words). There will be no assignment during exam week, so this is the last until January. Make it your best!
