U.S.

We finished our work on excerpts from Charles C. Mann's 1491 (see details posted yesterday) -- finish for homework as needed.  We then began work on more excerpts from James Loewen...First, read the Decatur Magazine article to gain more context and lens about Loewen, and then begin the analytical work with the Claim/Evidence (circles) page while reading the excerpts from Loewen's "Lies My Teacher Told Me" (from his Chapter 2).  USE the 2 1/2-sheets of instructions to guide you with the reading and work page -- to be continued in class tomorrow.
