Greetings!
I just wanted to post a quick reminder that your DBQ Essay on the adoption of the new Constitution should be completed (Wednesday, February 11, was the due date). If you are not finished with this assignment, make sure to complete it this weekend. I have attached a link to the essay rubric on the right hand side of this blog page under "Assignments/Rubrics."

Have a great Valentine's Day and President's Day weekend!

-Mr. H.

Hey Awesome Students,

Just a quick reminder that the DBQ packet should be completed by the beginning of class tomorrow. You will then begin to develop your ideas and create an outline for your argumentative essay that answers the document-based question: "Should the American people approve the new Constitution?" We will complete our outlines tomorrow and then learn the ins and outs of Noodle Tools on Thursday. On Friday, we will write our rough drafts!

Be great,
Mr. H.

Hey there!

Sorry for ignoring this blog post for the month of January, it has been a busy month. Just a reminder that today is the last day of the quarter. Monday is a fresh start - make it a good one. Continue to look over the DBQ packet - "Should the American people approve the new Constitution?" You will want to read through these documents several times to really get a sense of the issues people had in 1788. You will complete these document-based questions on Tuesday and begin writing your argumentative essay on Wednesday.

Have a great weekend!

GO HAWKS!!!
