Hello, Everyone!
I have attached the weekly Skyward Correspondence here in case you haven't seen it yet. I hope the first week went well and I appreciate all your hard work, patience, and communication. This week is going to look very similar as the first, but with a few changes. First, you can find the Calendar for the week HERE. I have chosen to not embed the documents as many people were having difficulty accessing them. Instead, the calendar will house the schedule for the week with topics and due dates. I will post the materials you will need below with the corresponding day. There will, however, be supplemental resources found in the calendar that you should be able to access directly within the calendar. *Please use this Week 2 Assignment for your notes and for the mini assignments connected to daily content.* Download the document to your computer and "Enable Editing" then save it to your documents. Monday McCarthyism Read JFK Inauguration (part of this week's assignment) Tuesday Kennedy and the Cold War (part of this week's assignment) Wednesday Kennedy and LBJ Thursday 1960's Society (part of this week's assignment) Friday--> will be a Flex Day where you can use that time to finish up whatever you didn't finish earlier in the week. There will be no new content for this day, instead it will serve as a work day. I strongly encourage you take a look at the supplemental stuff this week if you have some extra time. Hello, Everyone!

Hello everyone! This week, I am providing less enrichment activities with the hope that you start looking more seriously at our research paper. Many of you have already started and have been in contact with myself and/or Ms. Magee which is great! I strongly recommend doing the OPCVL practice below as that is a great skill-builder and something that I can give feedback on. I also attached a doc with a few links about the Cold War for those of you who are interested. Note: we will be moving forward with content starting April 20th. I suggest you review previously learned material, double check that you have all missing assignments turned in, and at least have a topic chosen for the research paper by the end of this week.
Please fill out this survey because i want to see how we are all doing! Cold War Videos OPCVL Practice Below, you will find information pertaining to our research paper.

I will attach a series of readings related to WWII, therefore this week will serve as a review/enrichment of material previously learned. However, this will ALSO serve as an excellent time to get caught up on any missing assignments you might have. All missing work should be submitted either to TII or an email to me with the assignment title in the subject. This work is not REQUIRED, rather it is an opportunity to do some review and engage in enrichment readings to deepen our understanding of the content.
