Marcel wanted to continue preparing for his American History final exam...which is tomorrow. He has 4 extensive essays to prepare for and the questions are quite complex. The basic topics include: 1) Manifest Destiny, 2) the 1920s, 3) The Cold War - referencing Korean & Vietnam Wars, 4) the Civil Rights Movement from 1909 - 1968. Marcel wanted to continue to work on questions #3 & #4. Today Marcel wanted to review and create an outline for question #3 as it applies to the Vietnam War. This took almost all of our time today as the Vietnam War is a complex and intense historical event. Marcel worked hard to grasp the causes and effects of the Vietnam War. We then worked on question #4 which asks students to analyze the Civil Rights Movement from 1909 - 1968. Marcel's AP U.S. Govt. exam is in less than two weeks! We will resume AP exam preparation tomorrow. We set a course and goals for our four remaining classes after his history final exam tomorrow.
