For each of your issues, I would like you to write a 2 sentence contextualization and then include specific illustrative examples.<br />
<br />
SAMPLE:<br />
<br />
1. Enlightenment ideas and revolution in the Atlantic World<br />
<br />
The Enlightenment in Europe (18th century) grew out of the Scientific Revolution and applied the principles of the scientific method, as well as the concepts of rationality and progress, to the study of human society. Enlightenment ideals of progress and perfectibility - the notion that society and government cold be improved by rational human efforts - led to the idea of natural rights such as liberty, equality before the law, free trade, religious toleration, and republicanism (citizenship in a state based on popular sovereignty vs. monarchy). Enlightenment thinkers challenged established beliefs in the divine right of kings, mercantilism and aristocratic privilege, and church authority. These ideals spread rapidly through newspapers, pamphlets and books, across the Atlantic to the colonies of France, Spain, Britain, and Portugal and animated the American, French, Haitian and South American Revolutions. Enlightenment ideals were articulated in several founding documents from these revolutions ranging from The Declaration of Independence, to The Declaration of the Rights of Man to Simon Bolivar's Jamaica Letter and create a common intellectual language and culture for the Atlantic Revolutions.jmurraydocarmohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16792254258207663849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4796291171836114881.post-53983065749021775052018-12-21T05:45:00.001-08:002018-12-21T06:42:55.148-08:00BLIZZARD BAG 2<img src="https://www.edgarsnyder.com/images/large-550/holiday/winter.jpg" /><br />

<b><i>Mongolian Ice and Snow Festival</i></b><br />
<br />
You know how we Blizz in WHAP? Like the MONGOLS. Yup. That's how we roll.<br />
<br />
You have two components to your Blizzard Bag.<br />
<br />
1. You each should have hard copies at home of the Mongols DBQ I handed out yesterday in class. Digital copies located <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tjf-1Rc6HfNP9DZo23YjdwHqbhdjHYf0C_l_G-zgfdo/edit?usp=sharing">HERE</a>. Please fill out the document chart <a href="https://1drv.ms/w/s!AgXg7fDN9865wkI8uX-QCuMts1JF">HERE</a> - Attribute, Characteristics and Sourcing columns ONLY. This chart walks you through breaking down the DBQ documents individually, making note of various components and beginning the process of document analysis. We will work on grouping and thesis development together as a group. For more information on the different categories of analysis on the chart, check out the Powerpoint located <a href="https://1drv.ms/p/s!AgXg7fDN9865wka8vDBQgtvw7u_U">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
2. If you have internet or can use you phone (parental approval for data plan required) please travel to the Caribbean, to the site of "first contact" between the Eastern and Western Hemispheres (I know, I know, Vikings, Greenland!! But, bear with me, I'm going with the colonization narrative here), the island of <i>Hispaniola</i>. The video is linked on the Blizzard Bag page on the right of the blog along with a series of video questions.<br />
<br />
Please let me know if you have any issues with links or need further clarification on the assignments. In the case of no power, just do your best. Work on the hard copies of the DBQ or see if you can plug along on the Early Modern Era Map - OR - finalize your Southernization questions that were due today.<br />

I am working on laying out the rest of the course up until Final Exams. I will have a due date schedule that covers Period 5 (chapters 13,14,15) posted here by the end of the day today. But until then, here are some planning tips: </div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
The 90 minutes in class we missed today should cover your Chapter 13 Quiz AND starting Southernization. </div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
Just a word to the wise on this reading. It is challenging. It is college-level history. It has been used (excerpted) on <b><i>many </i></b>AP World exams over the years, so it is worth your time. It is also an excellent review of the Indian Ocean Trade Network. Based on the Midterms, I think is is well worth our time as a class to shore up some of details related to this important trade network. Here is how I would approach the reading:<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: purple;">1. Highlight and make notes in the margins as you go. (<b>Patrick</b> - just highlight SOME parts :-)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">2. Underline key technologies, goods and civilizations. This is content you can use on the Early Modern Mapapalooza for IOTN.</span></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<br />
<span style="color: red;">3. Try to identify the 1-2 sentences that contain Shaffer's thesis. Circle them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime;">4. Then (using some other system of demarcation) make note of key evidence or reasoning that supports the thesis.</span></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">* REMINDER- know those AP regions (aka. South Asia = modern territories of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka)</span></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;">

Every year, our AP World History class studies the life, death and legacy of James Foley. We watch the film, JIM: The James Foley Story, directed by KRHS graduate Brian Oakes (see above at Commencement) and students write a one page reflection on Jim's legacy at Kingswood. As a class, and in response to the movie, we also create and implement a project that emphasizes global citizenship in Jim's honor. The past two years student fundraised $400 and paid for a year of high school for a student in Ghana through a non-profit organization called the Amenyo Foundation. What will we be inspired to do this year?<br />
<br />
This is a tough topic, a painful story, but one that I sincerely believe emphasizes the resilience and goodness of humanity and provokes thoughtful discussion around the ideal of moral courage.<br />
Below I have linked a series of readings that we will be reviewing in class.<br />

Please use <u>this</u> copy as I amended the list I handed out in class. It is digital so you can increase the spacing if you choose BUT, the copy you hand in to me should be HANDWRITTEN. Research shows that handwriting helps with information retention AND all writing on the AP Exam is by hand, so we need to get those fingers in shape!!<br />
<br />
You can do this (BELOW) when we do chapter notes.<br />
