Week 5: Regression or Advance?


Hope you have all had a good summer and are ready to return bright eyed and bushy tailed for Year 13. We will be going on to look at the 1877-1918. The lessons of the two classes will be slightly out of sync so the 'week will refer to the class who are furthest ahead.

We will be coming on to analyse the regression and advances in terms of African American Civil Rights along with looking at responses of African Americans.

You need to have completed your assignments set at the end of last term and bring in all the notes and sheets along with your green pen responses to the feedback on your assignments.
