11/19/13

I collected last night's homework at the beginning of class.

Next, I separated students into groups.  In those groups students competed against each other to analyze the Declaration of Independence and make connections to the various acts and events we studied in class.  The group that made the most connection won.

At the end of class, student examined the ideas behind the Declaration of Independence (Magna Carta, Enlightenment, Great Awakening).  They read sections in their textbook and answered questions, wrote notes onto the Colonial Thought Activity.

Colonial Thought Activity

Pages 141-145

Pages 135-140

Homework is to finish page one and two of the Colonial Thought Activity.  Do not start part 2 of the assignment.
