US History Homework: Due Tuesday, May 28th

None of this will be accepted late.  All prior HW rules, format, etc. apply to this assignment and every other one that is posted here.  No further copies will be made due to the difficulty in getting them in a timely manner.  If the homework has no heading, is not in proper format, or doesn't follow any of the other requirements, you will not receive credit, you will not get a second chance, you will simply get a zero.  Consider yourself warned for the 35th week in a row.

FLASHCARDS!

 

Make flash cards on all of the following.  I want to know: when, where, who, what, effects, & importance as they apply to each topic.

 

You must have a “cover card” that has a regular heading on it.  Nothing else it to be on this card.  Do them just like in class – topic on front, information on back.

 

Your cards must be rubber banded together prior to class.  These will not be provided.  No rubber band, no homework accepted.  Note, please, that I did not say anything but a rubber band is acceptable.  I will not accept the work on paper, either.

 

Look where ever you need to for the information – no page numbers this time.  Use your review book, the Internet, etc.

 

Please be sure to number all cards for credit.
