Assigned Document Analysis. Due Friday 1/4. These are the documents that are the backbone to our paper that we're writing as soon as we return from break (due date for paper 1/22). We'll be working on this alone for the first 2 1/2 weeks of the semester. If you were absent, see me! I'll need to explain some items. My hope is that you can get these done in your down time between finals, so you don't have homework over break. Of course, if you prefer to do it over break, that's fine too.
We went over the French Revolution "Quests". Grades are in gradebook.
Class averages:
1st- 83%, 4th- 79%, 5th, 79%, 6th- 82%, 7th- 81%
Passed back Salon projects for hours 5-7.

- Class picked up the Review for the Final. It will not be due for a grade and will not be extra credit. It is totally up to students to decide whether or not to complete. Therefore, they can share the workload on this. Word to the wise: Everything on the final is on the review and there is nothing on the review that isn't on the final...

Tuesday 12/11
LT- I can evaluate whether or not the Reign of Terror was justified.
- Discussed documents for 10 minutes. If you have questions, see me ASAP.
- Modeled bucketing with the question "How is sophomore year different from freshman year?". Possible buckets: 1. more freedom, 2. classes more difficult, 3. busier. Then we identified evidence to support these buckets: 1. driving, job brings more financial independence 2. more projects, more preparation for college 3. Sports more competitive, more time with friends.
- Complete bucketing and Chicken foot thesis : use white outline paper in the classroom. Do not use the outline at the very back of the pink DBQ packet.
- Homework- Outline is due next class period!
- Friday: French Revolution Quiz/Test= Quest. 27 questions. Remember, just because it is a test and just because they are multiple choice, does not mean it is easy. You have to KNOW the material, not just identify it.
