We talked about the trends in ionization energy and electronegativity.

Bella took a practice quiz on her restaurant vocabulary. She will take the actual quiz upon her return to campus.

Bella was then instructed on the proper procedure for conjugating a regular -ar, -er, or -ir verb in the present subjunctive.

She seemed to grasp the concepts well. She displayed her understanding by conjugating verbs in isolation and then as part of fully formed sentences.

We started talking about periodic trends. We learned the trends in atomic radius and ionic radius. Additionally, we learned about ions and the octet rule.

We learned how the periodic table is organized and about periodic law.

I planned for math

The Oregon country, between the Rocky Mountains & Pacific Ocean, containing what is now Oregon, Washington, Idaho & part of Wyoming and Montana. We discussed other nations that wanted this territory and how the U.S. jointly occupied this territory with another nation. Fur trappers were the first to come to this region. Americans began traveling to Oregon to settle in the 1830s. Skirmishes and tragedies between settlers and Native Americans often ensued. We discussed the Whitman Mission, the "great migration" along the Oregon Trail, and settlement in the Willamette Valley. We discussed the concept of "Manifest Destiny" analyzing the famous painting. In 1846, President Polk and Britain set the border between Oregon and British Canada at the 49th parallel.

Native American land east of the Mississippi River was valuable and white settlers wanted it. President Jackson agreed they should have it. Congress responded by passing the Indian Removal Act in 1830. In 1834 Congress created the Indian Territory in OK for Native Americans from the Southeast. In 1838 this resulted in the forced removal of Native Americans from their homes in the Southeast, WI & IL to march from their homes to OK under brutal conditions. This event is known as the Trail of Tears. The Seminole people of FL were the only Native Americans who successfully resisted their removal. We recognize names like Osceola, Dade, Military Trail from a nearly 10-year war fought between the Seminole & U.S. gov't. After 1842, nearly all Native American groups had been forced west of the Mississippi River.
