Hey everyone!

So SORRY I haven't updated. The time frame is the time that I was really sick. FORGIVE ME! Progress reports are going out- if you want to do better, make sure you are taking notes and STUDYING THEM!

We have almost finished our unit on the Gilded Age. We did stations last week, you will need to get that from a friend, as it is not easy to post. Then, we watched 20 minutes of the Men Who Built America to get a closer look at Vanderbilt. We took Focused Notes on Big Business! You have upcoming homework due THIS Friday for A Day and next Friday for B day. I have attached the PPT and the pictures!

Happy Friday!
