Chapter 11 Open Note Quiz


This week has been shortened as a result of 2 more snow days. Hope you are having (had) fun! We will have an open note Chpt. 11 Quiz this week Thursday. It will focus on the differences between the political views of the Federalists and Republican political parties and the personal views of A.Hamilton and T.Jefferson.
Students may use their reading notes, any class work, the double bubble compare and contrast notes (to be completed Wed.) and any other notes they take on Chpt. 11.
