Today's starter was: Think about yesterday's starter - Do the ends justify the means? Now, think about the way that President Polk started the War with Mexico - do you agree or disagree with his actions? Explain-
After discussing the starter we reviewed the events of the beginning of the War with Mexico. We then talked about the California gold rush. We watched an overview video of the west and then finished pages 5, 6, & 7 from the packet - these are homework if you didn't finish them.
We ended today by starting a practice test for Part II of the west.
If your grades are low right now, the only thing we have turned in is the Oregon Country Memorial.
