Welcome

Welcome
to our class blog!
You are currently enrolled in a course entitled "American Century." Last semester we covered the inception of the United States, the building of this nation by founding fathers and mothers, and the trials, tribulations and triumphs leading Americans up to the Civil War. This semester we will cover Reconstruction through the 20th century. Our blog will serve to keep us up to date on assignments, as a forum for survey and discussion, and as a launching pad to the rest of the web which will help aid our research as historians. Enjoy!

So this week is a wash...because Wednesday is Saturday's schedule, I see each US block only twice.

Block E
Thursday Oct. 14th: Teams Gardiner & Hooper will present (Team McClelland is slated for Friday). You will complete your 13 colonies visual organizers in the process. Time allowing, we will begin discussion of Salem Witch Trials.

Both Blocks
