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.

The documentary below covers the highlights of Ford's presidency really well. You can start from the beginning, but Watergate starts around 18m in - follow along and annotate your notes.
"The Century - Starting Over" below covers the highlights of the Carter years and would be a great review before the test.
