Nicole Slagle, 2nd period
When we got in class today we received our notebooks back and we turned to a clean left and a clean right and on the right we wrote the following:
Unit 3
Road to Revolution
(1750-1787)
IDQ lists #6&7
Projected Test date 10/21
NOTEBOOKS WILL BE COLLECTED AGAIN BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT GRADED YET!
We then turned the page in the notebook and began the lesson with a political cartoon (ON THE LEFT!) by Benjamin Franklin in 1754. After discussing the cartoon we then turned to the right side and began taking notes. First starting with the four wars for empire. (WAG + French and Indian war they can be found in Ch. 4: pg 89+) We then moved on to talking about Ft. Duquesne and the Ohio River.
Today we got back our IDQ#5 and filled in our chart on how many we got wrong, how we studied, etc.
Please do not forget to meet in Mrs. Titus's room which is the closest room to the auditorium. Also, terms notebooks will no be collected tomorrow due to being out of the classroom but please remember to do them anyway because it will affect your grade and this quiz may not be dropped.
IDQ #6 TOMORROW 10/7

Ishi Singh, Period 2
Today we met in Mrs. Titus's room (404), but tomorrow we will meet in the classroom as usual.
Terms List #6 was due today, and we had the quiz. We swapped notebooks with each other to grade them, but Mrs. McCarron did not collect them.
After the quiz, we picked up a worksheet with documents and graphic organizers on it for LIEs (Literal, Inference, Extrapolate). In class, we went over the first document.
Terms List #7 is due next Tuesday, 10/14.

Nicole Slagle, 2nd period
Today when we got in class we turned to three clean pages. On the first two pages (starting on the left side) we wrote: Now Go To Instant Replay. On the next page (left) we outlined our hand. We then turned back to the first page that we wrote Now Go... and McCarron lectured about the social pyramid of Europeans and the social ladder of Americas. We defineed yeoman farmers. We also talked about who the two sides of the French and Indian War. Which was French and their Indian allies+ colonists vs. British and their Indian allies+ colonists. We started talking about the Albany Plan of Union and how that failed. Can be found in chps.4-5
Make up tests are before 10/10!!
Start terms for Tuesday's quiz 10/140
Thursday, 10/9
Ishi Singh, Period 2
When we came to class, there was a chart on the screen that paired everyone up. In these pairs, one person has a gold documents sheet and the other has green. We will sit like this again tomorrow, since we didn't get to the activity.
Lecture Notes:
At the beginning of the French and Indian War in 1954, British William Pitt told the colonists that they could have more responsibility in warfare and that Britain would fund it. However, when the war spread to the European continent, Grenville came into power and his main focus was to get rid of the debt Britain had accumulated in its wars.
The French and Indian War ended with the Treaty of Paris (1763). It kicked France off of mainland North America, making Britain the dominant colonial power there, along with Spain.
In the early eighteenth century, the Navigation Acts were passed to regulate trade in a mercantile fashion. All goods shipped to and from the colonies must be on British ships with British crews. Also, all trade with the colonies must stop in Britain first for tariffs. At first, these Acts aren't enforced a lot to gain the colonists' confidence; this is salutary neglect. However, the colonists got upset when Grenville started to make the taxes more serious to help his country's debt.
Grenville set up a lot of new taxes in his Imperial Reorganization of 1763. The Sugar Act( Revenue Act of 1763) modified the Molasses Act (1733) to make the tax less, but more heavily enforced. The Currency Act of 1764 said that all taxes must be paid in species (gold and silver). The Stamp Act of 1765 was different because it was internal and direct, putting a tax on all paper bought. The Quartering Act of 1764 had the colonists provide housing for British soldiers.
There is a Terms Quiz on 10/14.
