Using the Essential Terms and Concepts sheet:
Complete the 10 items from Unit 5 that you feel you need to review. Identify each and explain their significance in American History. Typically, for identification, ask yourself the "who was involved, what happened, where did it take place, etc." and for the significance, ask yourself "why is this important for the course, what is the outcome, what does it lead to, etc." - choose terms that you truly need to review again, not ones you already know.
Please underline or highlight the significance of each term so that it is clear when grading what you think is the importance of each term. If you fail to indicate significance, the assignment will be returned to you to be completed according to instructions.
Must be handwritten and submitted before we start on the day of the unit test.
