Hello and welcome to the official blog of Mr. J's APUSH class. I hope you are all as excited as I am for summer and then a great school year. I am back from my wedding/honeymoon and as such, will have much more time to update this site as the summer goes on.
I have given you two assignments so far for the summer. One involves the 'Hall of Fame'. This is fairly self explanatory but feel free to ask any questions on the comment section below. The second assignment deal with a historical figure profile. I will be assigning each of you 2 or 3 (have not decided yet) historical figures to take on. The assignment was handed out on the last day of school (it's the one with the gerald ford template on it).
I will be assigning these figures in the next week or so but I would like each of you to check in by leaving a comment below with your name.
I may be requiring each of you to start a google account if you do not already have one. Google is one of the many tools that we will utilize this year in order to enhance our ability to study US History.
Again, please feel free to ask anything in the comment section. It would be helpful for me if you (anyone) could list as many names of people who are taking the class as possible. We will need to set up an e-mail or phone chain as well.
More to come, enjoy your summers!!
Notice the usable Google calendar on the right hand side of the site. You can use this to see the agenda for the day/week/month!
