Homework:


  • Create an outline to answer the essay question, "How successful was the New Deal?" Use the description on the back of the "Second New Deal" reading, directly below questions 1-9 as a guideline. Each of the seperate bullet points should be the topic for one of your paragraphs. What specific evidence would you include in each paragraph?

  • Write a thesis statement. Get beyond the simplistic responses of, "It was pretty successful," etc...

  • STUDY FOR THE UNIT TEST, next TUESDAY!!!!! If you have questions, have them ready for me on Monday please, when we'll have time for review. Thanks!
