In preparation for the 1st test of the year, you must memorize the portion of the Declaration of Independence that refers to the five ideals discussed in class - from "We hold.... to abolish it"
Information in the textbook from pages 21-63 is all fair game for the test.
Political designations (names of 13 colonies and key cities) and physio-graphic information (lakes, rivers, mtns.) from your map will also be tested.
So study and don't put this off until Tuesday evening! Get off to a good start. See me if you have questions.

Colonial Study Sheet due Thurs. I advise you to download it from here, save it to your computer, complete it using as much space as you need, print it out, then turn it in (especially if your handwriting is rather large).
Expectations for Study Sheets: Answer questions thoughtfully / analytically. Don't just write exactly what it says in the book. Regarding Identifications, write definition in your own words the best you can, AND write how/why this term is significant to what we are currently studying.
----see example file.
These Study Sheets are often your only homework. They are the bulk of what we will be studying / what I deem important, so do a good job on them and your test scores will reflect your effort.
