PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE WATCHED THE VIDEO INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING WORK ON THE ESSENTIAL TERMS AND QUESTIONS.
Written instructions are found in the assignment. Use our class notes first to find the information, and then if you still need information go to www.history.com and use their search feature. DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA.
Here is one example of how to do an essential term:
1. Mercantilism
Who and Where: Great Britain and the 13 British Colonies
What: to gain wealth and therefore global power, a mother country (GB) takes raw materials from its colonies -> uses the labor from citizens of the mother country -> sells finished products to other countries and back to its colonies
When: throughout British colonization of North America in the 1600s and 1700s before American independence (see also Salutary Neglect)
SIG: although the colonies benefited in certain ways from mercantilism, they began to resent the Navigation Acts that would force their goods to go through British ports on British ships, earning additional profits through taxation as tensions rose
ETQs are always due on the day of the unit assessment (see pacing guide under "Resources" tab for more information) and must be handwritten.

Case Study Group Activity:
You will work as a team in your row - split into group A and group B and pick which case study will be assigned to group A and group B.
1. On a separate sheet of paper, define federal supremacy and legal precedent.
2. Read the case study and answer the questions with your partner(s) on the same separate sheet of paper. (This will be turned in for your group for a grade)
3. Choose how you both will explain your case to the other group in your team in a way that is simple to understand.
Explain the following to them:
a) the background of the case
b) the conflict the Marshall Court is having to settle
c) the outcome of the case
d) the precedent that is established

Market Revolution Tasks:
1) Watch "Crash Course: Market Revolution" below - just watch and make sure you understand the changes happening during the mid-1800s as they are explained. Be sure to read through the notes after watching the video, and write any questions you have for a brief Q&A before we move on to the next set of notes.
2) Use the "Innovations and Inventions of Industrialization" chart below the video to access the links you need to research and complete the hard copy chart you will be given. Please use bullet points for the chart (whatever is not finished will become homework to be submitted at the beginning of class tomorrow).

The "Guide to the Presidents" episode below is a great review of all of the Unit 3 presidents (except for Monroe). I'd recommend it before the test.
