Good Morning!

Please use your class time to write a one paragraph response to the Topic 1.1 FRQ (in Task Dashboard)

You may use the first 10 minutes or so of class to share your ideas with your classmates, but then everyone please work quietly to write your drafts individually.

Please submit your answers by the end of the period.

See you tomorrow! :-)

1. Turn in your Topic 1.1 Packets at the beginning of class.

2. Today we are going to be introduced to another source of information: Heimler’s History https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_bOoi0e3L3SJ1xx5TZWHPw

3. We will watch Heimler’s video about the philosophical background of the Declaration and Constitution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNgEnW3vkTE

1. You have been given today to complete your close reading of the Declaration of Independence and Locke’s 2nd Treatise on Government. Get right to work!

Good Morning!

1. Today I will be introducing you to video resources from the AP Classroom Web Site (We will get each of you set up on that site on Wednesday). We will be watching two videos that will help you complete/revise the Topic 1.1 Analytical Readings of the Declaration of Independence and John Locke’s 2nd Treatise on Government.

2. I will also be introducing you to Ms. Jennifer Hitchcock, a nationally recognized AP US Government teacher and a good friend. Hitch has a super helpful Web Site: http://lovgov.weebly.com/ which we may use from time to time and which you are welcome to use ANY time. If you are on Twitter, you may also want to follow her account: @lovgov

3. Please take out your Topic 1.1 Packet. You will need it as you watch today’s two videos, and you will turn it in at the end of class.
