ALL CLASSES!

Hey gang, I am home sick, don't fret, I'll be OK! I need you to check your Davis student email for instructions. They are as follows:

Please watch the Video Podcast: https://www.educreations.com/lesson/view/road-to-civil-war/57991026/

When finished with the video podcast, Read the Road to Civil War Doc & answer the 13 Road to Civil War Q's in your SS journal. These answers must be handwritten (unless you have an accommodation)

  1. What were the details of Henry Clay's Compromise of 1850. Was it a true compromise?
  2. What was the Underground Railroad?
  3. What was Uncle Tom's Cabin about and how was it received by the readers?
  4. How did the Kansas-Nebraska Act tear the nation in half and what did it do to the Missouri Compromise of 1820?
  5. What political party was created because of the Kansas-Nebraska act and what was their objective as a party?
  6. Who was John Brown and what did he do in Kansas?
  7. What happened in Congress in 1856? What kind of message did this send to the nation about the issue of slavery?
  8. What was the verdict of the Dred Scott Decision in 1857?
  9. What phrase captured the nation in the Lincoln-Douglas debates of 1858? Who won the debates?
  10. What did John Brown do in 1859 in Harper's Ferry, Va?
  11. How did Abraham Lincoln win the Election of 1860 and what was the result of his election?
  12. Do you think the Civil War was inevitable? Explain why/why not (opinionated)

If you finish the Q's early and want to begin the Road to Civil War test, you may do so. Follow the directions for the test below.

Day 3 -- Road to Civil War test due by the end of the class on Day 3. No exceptions!

Title the Pages - "Road to Civil War Test" and answer the Q's to the test in your SS Journal...

Yes, I want the answers handwritten (unless you have accommodations)... If you are at home/concurrent, I still want the answers handwritten! Take pictures of the answers in your journal or on separate lined paper and email them to me!

Failure to follow the directions will result in a ten point deduction from the final test score. No exceptions!

I expect the journals to be turned into the teacher on Day 3 and the journals to be placed on my desk. Thank you!

If you have any Q's, please email me and I will respond as soon as I am able to. Again, I am sick, so please understand I am resting.

Thank you gang and Be Good!
