Week+26+Reading

Reminder
I will be out of school Tuesday 2/21 for jury duty and MAY not be back Wednesday. I will be relying primarily on the wiki as well as occasional emails to keep in touch with you folks in case I get picked to serve on a jury.

Gillon-Matson Chapter 24: The "Roaring Twenties"
My approach for guiding your reading of Ch. 24 is going to be different since you are getting at least one day in class to work with your books and notes directly. Instead of breaking up the chapter text as written into chunks and identifying the key terms and events, I've grouped all the material on the decade into five categories of history: political, international, economic, social, and cultural/intellectual.

__Tues 2/21__

Your first job is to print this outline and bring it to class Tuesday (or use your phone to get it from the wiki).

Some of the outline's contents are specific terms you need to be able to ID (they're in bold, and that means being able to answer **who? what? when? where? why and how?** and of course **so what?**). Otherwise the outline largely consists of generalizations you will want to try to gather specific evidence for, like statistics on GDP growth and the unemployment rate.

I expect this output to end up in your APUSH notebook. Once I'm back from jury duty, I also expect to be able to see the results of your labors. That could be a notebook check or a quick free response question about the material you handled while I'm absent, however long that is.

Upcoming either this week or next: an in-class 35-minute FRQ on WWI. This **will not** occur until I am back in school.

If you have any questions or if my absence becomes extended, please email me. Enjoy Washington's Birthday, which as a holiday will be 64 on Monday.

__Weds 2/22__

Continue reading Ch 24 so you can fill in the outline above. Ch 24 MCQ/FR test will be next Tuesday 2/28 or Wednesday 2/29.

In class Friday: WWI FRQ. Periods are 40 minutes; you will have 35.


 * Prompt: Analyze the objectives that led the United States into the Great War AND the degree to which those objectives were achieved.**

And now the [|truth] about the carving...
