Updated through 9/6

For 9/3 you are to read pp. 4-6 in the We the People book.  And those of you who didn't come to class 9/2 with your paper bag, you need to have your book covered MY WAY for 9/3 for a grade.

You need to do the questions on page 6 in WE the People by the end of class on 9/4.  For those of you who need to reread pages 4-6, or want to get a few of these questions done at home to make sure they are finished at the end of class on 9/4, get a head start.

On Thursday 9/4 we will get the 5 forms of government worksheet (also on my “worksheets” link).  You should read them over Thursday night.  Friday, we will go over these terms fully and then you will have a simple matching quiz at the end of class.

Updated through September 2nd

For the Week of 8/27/08
1.  Get intro sheet and survey filled out and signed.  Note that my school website is http://jspecksherson.shschools.net and my email is jspecksherson@shschools.com  Sorry for all the confusion on this.  My more detailed site, where the students and I will be working quite a bit is on this site:  http://web.mac.com/speckie/History


2.  Bring in big grocery paper bag.  Big department store paper bags might work well too if the paper is thick like a grocery bag.

3.  For those who want to tap into the textbook online, I got the following information from the publisher representative:

ACTIVATION CODE: 2606284-10
Product Name: American History - eEdition
ISBN #: 9780618829163 

I will demonstrate the whole process in class on Tuesday during our book covering party.
