 WOW! This history is good stuff!!!

    This page is designed as a resource for both parents and students.  Each week it will be updated (hopefully) indicating/explaining what we are doing in class and any assignments - both long term and homework.  Remember there is an Iron-Clad policy of not accepting homework late.   Homework is due the period and day it is assigned for.   This site deals with  A.P. U.S. History, Regents U.S. History,  Participation in Government, and Syracuse PAF 101.  Make sure you read the correct material below.  And always, check the date of my last update.

U.S. History - Advanced Placement

 

  Yes... you must read the book to do well on quizzes. WE cannot expect to learn everything through class activities (Buscky 2/06)     

 

Coming up – We going to take in in depth look at September 11th and how it impacted the US.  We’ll examine the Bill of Rights and compare the Patriot Act and determine if safety is worth losing some freedom. 

Monday – Yes.  I’ll be on the road and you will work on your journals.

MOVIE NIGHT – WEDNESDAY 5/23.  WE’RE GOING TO VIEW – 13 DAYS  THE STORY OF THE CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS.   Let’s make a party of it.   The movie will begin at 6:30 PM and we’ll discuss the details in class on Tuesday.
