Classwork: Brainstorm a list of at least 10 topics that you would want to research -- no need to choose a prompt yet!

That's all for Monday, 5/8/2023!

Over the next week, start thinking about topics in our course that have “stuck” with you, left you with more questions than answers. You should also ask around the class and see if anyone has similar interests and would like to work with you!

Ɛhia

How would you like to complete the project?

I would like to work independently on my own.

I would like to work with a partner from our class period, and will list their name under "Show Your Work."

Ɛhia

Which prompt will you answer?

What lessons can we learn from U.S. history? Limit your response to one historical example (event, person, concept, etc.).

Qualify or challenge a generally accepted interpretation of a historical event from the AP U.S. History course.

Ɛhia

Exit Ticket: Based on your answer to #5, past student exemplars, and the documentaries we watched this week, identify the top THREE topics that excite you.
