History Essay (assigned March 2nd, due March 9th):
Several students left their handout for this important assignment. Here are the directions. Again, an easy A if you do the assignment and turn it in on time!
Directions: Using your history textbook, notes, jeopardy game on the website, etc., write an essay explaining how some of the widespread ideas during the Great Awakening affected the American colonies and led to a desire for liberty and the War for Independence. Include at least five important facts in your essay (do not just list the facts, this needs to be in paragraph form!). This is a history grade for accuracy, and a language grade for writing skills.
