APUSH Homework

Unit Homework

You will have homework due on every Wednesday of the week. There are three main parts of your homework: outline, unit videos, and then a quiz. If you would like to purchase your own AMSCO book, then click the link below. I have also attached PDFs below for each chapter.

Outline the Chapter in your Notebook

As you read the chapter, take notes on all the bolded sections and terms. You need at least 1 sentence per bolded event/term for full credit but a good outline may include more. Choose the most important information and write it down in your own words. They do not have to be complete sentences. See example here. 

Watch the Unit Videos

In addition to the chapter outlines, I will provide videos for you to watch each unit. These will help provide quick summaries of main topics as well as provide questions for you to answer. Go to Edpuzzle.com to watch and use the code: rejkalv

Study for your Quiz

We will have a quiz on most chapters as a way to practice your recall of information. These will be a mix of multiple choice and written response.
