We finished discussing the causes of the Civil War which led us into the beginning of the Civil War. The Union is the heavy favorite but the Confederacy has some of the best generals in America.

Causes of the Civil War
What was the Wilmot Proviso? How did Henry Clay's Compromise of 1850 help lead us into the Civil War? Why was Kansas bleeding? Why did Whig party split? Those are just a few questions discussed today in class. Reminder students, finish the notes passed out today, you never know what might be in store the next day. Take care

Quiz, more land, and there's about to be anothe war
Students enjoyed taking a quiz over the Western Trails, Manifest Destiny, & the Reform Movement. Afterwards, they read about the acquisition of new land in the United States - Mexican Cession, Gadsden Purchase, & the Oregon Territory (page 394-395). We also began working on the causes of the Civil War (Pre-AP: group work & Regular: individual notes).
