Weekly Syllabus

Week of Monday, November 2 through Friday, November 6


We have two more weeks to go before winding up the term. During that time we will study a little more material about America in the period of 1820-1850 and you will submit your Constitutional amendments papers (on Tuesday, November 10th). We will have a test on Tuesday covering Chapters 7,8 & 9 and the Constitution. Our term exam will be on Tuesday, November 17th, and it will cover everything we have done this term. You might want to start conferencing!
