As we move into October, our History classes will be working on the various parts of the research project. Today classes will be provided a preview of 3 quality online periodical sites: Library of Congress' "American Memory"; Issues in American History; and United Streaming. These are all available from our media center's hompage. Students will present at least four sources with notes by Friday, 10/5. HW for the remainder of the week will be to work on their research notes at home. Note-taking guides and organizers are available in class.
No internet sites are allowed at this point, although web-resources and periodicals linked from the media center's hompage are encouraged. This represents the first grade associated with the research project, and is only a portion of the note grade referred to in the project description (See previous entry for project description).
Be well!
Mr. Wells
