I am somewhat...I'm not sure - holyforest - 2010-06-27
I just received my AP U.S. History summer work today online (teacher was procrastinating.....) and I have to say it's pretty amazing how much it is. But oh well. I don't really know how I feel right now. I'll have to write 4 essays and do other stuff. I've got all summer though, so, yeah.

1st essay: 1. Why Study History?
David McCullough, “Knowing History and Knowing Who We Are;” (2005)
Peter Stearns, “Why Study History?” (1998)
After reading the McCullough and Stearns articles, write a five paragraph essay that explains the importance of historical study. Your first paragraph must contain a thesis statement and three statements of organization. Use the statements of organization to generate the three body paragraphs. Write a conclusion that does not merely repeat the first paragraph but instead offers a final insight or analysis.
2nd essay: 1. To what extent is European colonization of the New World a tragic episode in history? Identify the different perspectives taken by historians on this issue. Consider the benefits of historical progress as well as the European impact on the indigenous people and ecosystem of the Americas. (5 paragraph essay)
3rd essay: 1. To what extent does the history of 17th century North America indicate conflict between Native Americans and settlers? (“Where Historians Disagree,” 58-59) (3-5 paragraph essay.)
4th essay: 2. Which played a greater role in determining the characteristics of the 17th century colonial society—geography or the background and of the settlers themselves? (3-5 paragraph essay.)
