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!

Due Friday Jan. 7th

1. Operation RAW! I can't wait to see your creations.

2. Drafts of your minority papers- you must come with one or else you will see a deduction from your final paper grade. I want to spend a part of class working on the editing process. Hopefully I can get my eyes on as many thesis statements as possible! Remember to footnote...I'll check those too!

3. Read and take notes starting on pg. 329 starting with "American Romanticism" through pg. 337 ending before "Abolitionism." THIS IS EASY READING AND NOTES SHOULD BE BRIEF.  Literally shouldn't take you more than 15 minutes- just define romanticism, transcendentalism, individualism, utopianism, Shakers, Mormons, temperance and you should be good!
