Plans for 10/24/12

Hey APUSHers!

I will be a chaperone on a field trip tomorrow with West Ranch TV. Here's an outline right now of what I have planned for tomorrow:

  • Unit 3 (a few more questions) - I got feedback from a few students after the exam that they studied A LOT for the exam, and felt as though they didn't have an opportunity to demonstrate all they had learned. So you're getting a chance to improve your score tomorrow. You're getting a few more questions. Do your BEST. It can only help your existing Unit 3 Exam score (finishing those right now). It cannot hurt you.
  • The Age of Jackson. You will get an intro to Andrew Jackson, and then read an article on The Age of Jackson and Jacksonian Democracy. Among the questions I need for you to examine are (1) what are we referring to when we speak of "Jacksonian Democracy," and (2) how democratic was this "Democracy"?
  • HW: A focus on "Andrew Jackson: Hero or Villain?"--Begin thinking of what the legacy of Andrew Jackson will be. Should he be remembered as a national hero, as an evil villain, or some combination of the two?
