We will be moving at a pretty good pace in order to cover all the information so you MUST do what you can to keep up with the assignments. I have created this website in order to make it easier for you to keep up. For example, let's say you lost your homework. In the past you would have to call a friend and try to make a photo copy or turn in the work on loose leaf paper, or even worse, not do the work at all. Now you can visit the website, access the work, print a copy and complete it! It is just that simple! No more "zeros" because you lost the worksheet. Are you not sure when the next test is? Don't worry, visit the website, the information will be there for you!

This week we are covering Unit 1A: Citizenship. Use the link on the left to navigate to that unit's page. In addition, Tuesday, January 25, President Obama will be giving the "State of the Union Address." This is required annually by the US Constitution. I would like for you to watch the coverage of the Address beginning with the commentary and discussion BEFORE the speech. Although every major network will cover this event, I prefer CNN's pre speech coverage because they seem to always explain what the purpose of the speech is and what is going on.
And that is one of the best things about this course, unlike World History or US History which focus on past events, this course primarily focuses on current events - our rights, our government, our role. I hope you will enjoy this course, I am looking forward to it!
