What We Did Today
We worked in our textbook on Chapter 16, Section 3 ("The War in the West"). Some of us also worked on our vocabulary.
Homework
None, though the goal is to have all section assessments completed by the end of the day on Friday, March 2. So if you are pacing yourself, you should be done with sections 1, 2, and 3 (and if you want to finish all the vocabulary words on the vocab worksheet, you should aim to have the first twelve done on your worksheet by today. So, if you don't want an overwhelming amount of homework later in the week, have your section 1, 2, and 3 assessments done, as well as the first twelve vocab words completed.
