next unit reading and research paper due dates

You can find the two documents with the textbook reading for the next unit linked below.  You will have reading assignments due over the next few weeks, but never on the same days as a research step is due.

As a reminder, notes need to be your own, original, handwritten notes to receive credit for a notes check, or to be used on a reading check/quiz.  Remember to structure them by including headings, subheading and page numbers, and by underlining or otherwise highlighting key terms.

For review:
Here are the documents from the 1850's we looked at and analyzed in class.  The second to last document are the last words of John Brown.  The last document, the artwork Tragic Prelude, can be viewed in color here.
Also, you may find the last 15-20 minutes of America:  The Story of US "Westward" episode (from 32 minutes to the end) and the "Division" episode (30-43 minutes) to be helpful in your reviewing.
Here's the kahoot from class.

Preliminary thesis and outline due Wednesday 5/31 (C block:  since you do not have class on Wednesday, be sure to drop off your printed work to me in room 336 by the end of the day).
