Today we did NOT get to the Manifest Destiny stuff that was scheduled for today, SO we are moving the DCN assignment over 4.1 back to Monday, 8/30 and the quiz over Unit 1 will now be next Friday, September 3. (The DCN bundle will also be due that day too- so p. 52-53, 2.3, 3.3, and 4.1.)
What we DID do today was work through the rest of the Constitution stuff, as well as discuss federalism in depth and take a look at various conflicts in the early history of our country that were conflicts for federalism. The graphic organizer is not on the blog, so if you weren't in class, you need to see me, and I'll get that to you.
One of the issues that we looked at was the dispute between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson during George Washington's term of presidency. After we looked at the dispute and the problems it caused for federalism, we determined which of the two men we most agreed with from a political perspective.
Stay tuned for a post on manifest destiny later this week!
