AP US History

Hello and Welcome back! AP US History covers twice as much information in the same amount of time.  We will be using technology to help us get through it all.  It is important that you understand America before Columbus.  Before the second day of class please go to my Youtube Channel and click on the US History playlist.  Watch "America before Columbus" and write an essay discussing the impact of Columbus on America and Europe.  Consider the following points:
1. Fishing
2. Populations
3. Natural resources
4. Animals
5. Trade
6. War
7. The Church

AP World History

Hello and welcome back! AP World History begins with the "Cave Men" and goes through the modern era.  That's a lot to cover! We will take advantage of technology and use Youtube history videos.  By the second day of class I want everyone to go to my Youtube Channel and watch the videos on Egypt and Mesopotamia.  After you watch please write an essay discussing the following:
1. What are the respective dates of the two civilizations?  What makes these two of the first civilizations?
2. Where are the two located? Why? How did location influence them?
3. Explain the role of religion and how the two differed. What role did that play in government?
4. What are 3 ways we are influenced by each of the two civilizations today?

Don't freak out! You will be ok! :)
