Civil War and Snow


So I can't wait to trudge BACK to school tomorrow in the same muck that the town crews refused to clean up today. FUN! In any case, here you go:

Questions TO BE DONE FOR FRIDAY NO MATTER WHAT!

·How did the Civil War change from a war of preserving union to one of abolishing slavery?

·How did careful Union diplomacy manage the Civil War crisis with Britain?

·How did the North and the South each handle their economic and human-resource needs?

·What impact did the draft, the use of black troops, and Lincoln's suspension of civil liberties have on the conduct of the war?

·How did the military stalemate of 1861-62 affect both sides in the Civil War?

·What were the primary military strategies of each side?

·What were the costs of the Civil War to the nation as a whole? What issues were settled by the war, and what new problems were created?

For Monday:

Notes on the civil war from Pageant.
Corresponding IDs on page 281+282 of AMSCO.

IF THERE IS NO SCHOOL FRIDAY OR MONDAY, ADD THIS TO YOUR LIST OF RESPONSIBILITIES:

Outline the Reconstruction chapter in Pageant and complete corresponding IDs from AMSCO (you can find the pages.. baby steps!)

What were the different plans for reconstructing the union? Key differences?
Which would you have chosen and why?

FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE!
