This week, we're looking at the Jacksonian Period which saw such rapid US growth - territorial as well as economic. We'll also take a close look at both Manifest Destiny and the expansion of slavery.
We have two assignments. The first is a one-page (minimum of 300 words) outline. You'll be writing about a famous American figure from the period of later colonization to the first 90 years of US History but are instructed NOT to select a US President.
Be sure to include at least two potential sources. If you've never produced an outline before, see this page for information on who to draft one (page includes a sample outline).
Then you'll proceed to the Unit VI Assessment. Again, for that, be thorough and, as always for any essay you produce in this class, include a citation or two.
