HW:

·         Ch 15 federal bureaucracy: CHANGE pp. 489 – 500 due 03/19 (Please complete your notes and type them up.  I am figuring out a system by which you can turn in your homework.  Directions for turning in homework will be included in your daily lesson instructions later this week or next.  Please complete your homework on schedule as usual so that you do not get behind.)

·         Your current event that was due Friday will still be due, but I also need to figure out how you will turn in your homework.  More directions to come.

·         We The People Lesson 24 will be due Friday or later this week.  You can access the book / lesson on my website as well as the worksheet.

·         You will have a practice FRQ later this week and a graded FRQ next week.  More details soon.

BW – None.  Please start today’s class by taking the quiz on AP Classroom.  Try to download the secure browser from College Board.  I sent the link in yesterday’s lesson email through ParentSquare and also posted it on my webpage, mrchistoryman.blogspot.com.  I have allowed you 28 minutes to take the quiz, but many of you will not need the whole 28 minutes.  Please make sure your internet connection is good and all your systems are working correctly before starting the quiz as it is a timed assessment.  Remember that you are still being held responsible for academic integrity as well.  If you experience problems, please email me.  I will be dedicating time every day to answer your email questions every day.

Lesson / Lecture – Please start Ch. 15 Lecture The Federal Bureaucracy.  Please read and study slides 2-9.  These are the AP objectives.  I have recorded an audio lecture to supplement the lecture notes.  In this audio recording, I explain each objective and give you deeper context and connect the ideas in the lecture to previous ideas we have discussed.  This should take you about 16-18 minutes.

• Many of you may not have received the audio lecture attachment.  I posted it under AP U.S. Government Lectures: File name 031820 mp3 audio lecture
