7th hour -- see your scored research and feedback. In all classes we did a self-evaluation on our skills -- see me to do this if you've been absent. We then began our new unit of study by setting up our E.Q. and C.Q. pages ("A New Republic"). See a reliable classmate for setup. Students then collaborated to add details about the French and Haitian revolutions on the handout provided. (Again, see a reliable classmate for the notes as needed.) I connected their memory from the recent past unit to this one -- the Haudenosaunee of NE had influence on our founding documents (ie. Constitution) in part because they interacted with our Founding Fathers...and that Colonial Williamsburg depicts largely the late colonial era -- the era of our Founding Fathers. In 4th hour we began the guessing game "Founder or Not" -- to be continued tomorrow, and will be conducted in 6th and 7th tomorrow.
