S2 - DAY 66/67: APRIL 20/21 - UNIT 1 REVIEW

HELLO EVERYONE!

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY!  I HOPE YOU FIND SOME TIME TO ENJOY THE SUNSHINE AND BLUE SKIES !

A FEW REMINDERS/ANNOUNCEMENTS:

  • PERIOD 2 ATTENDANCE MONDAY, TUESDAY, THURSDAY, AND FRIDAY!

A HEADS UP FOR WEDNESDAY....

  • GOOGLE MEET WITH YOUR CONGRESSMAN IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES:  On Wednesday at 11am, Congressman Quigley will be synchronously hosting a Google Meet with Leyden students. It's a "check-in" day, so attendance is optional.  There will be lots of conversation about the Federal response to the pandemic and time for Q and A as well.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS TO ASK PLEASE EMAIL ME YOUR QUESTIONS AHEAD OF TIME SO THAT WE COULD FORWARD THEM TO THE CONGRESSMAN!  EXTRA CREDIT FOR JOINING IN..EVEN MORE BONUS POINTS FOR ASKING QUESTIONS!

MONDAY/TUESDAY LESSON...

UNIT 1 HAS 4 "BIG IDEAS."  These BIG IDEAS are presented in this: 
SLIDES PRESENTATION:  UNIT 1: FOUNDATIONS OF AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
  • Review the UNIT 1 SLIDES above... if you have been watching the review videos this should be easy...if not, it may be helpful to you to watch the videos below to review the content: Making these videos is not easy! Sorry about being long winded and tongue tied!: 
  • For each BIG IDEA create a MIND MAP ...see below....you can call this a web, graphic organizer, etc. AND feel free to draw freehand - my preference -  or go digital (LUCID CHART ..but don't waste time if you are not tech savvy on this!?)...
    •  ...no need to be artistic - but go for it if you'd like -  just be organized and legible..these can act as great cheat sheets for your test! 
    • In the center you should have the BIG IDEA.  
    • Be sure to include important vocabulary, people, places, events, documents, compromises,  positions, etc. that are relevant. THESE CAN BE FOUND ON THE YELLOW  CONTENT OUTLINE SLIDE AFTER THE BIG IDEA!
    • USE ONLY ONE PIECE OF NOTEBOOK PAPER FOR EACH BIG IDEA! 
    • When you finish send me one picture of of all 4 of your Unit 1 MIND MAPS
SOME EXAMPLES...
