Study Suggestions

· Make a time line of major events for each era (for example, 1607—1783: establishment of Jamestown in 1607, arrival of the Puritans in 1630, etc.).

· Choose a dozen major events (for example, the Great Depression or the Progressive movement). For each identify five things that helped to bring this about and five things that resulted from this.

· For each war, identify causes, conflicts, and results.

· Choose a dozen important presidents. For each, identify five important events or changes that occurred during his administration (for example, Andrew Jackson—Bank War, Cherokee Removal, etc.).

· For each set of Key ID’s, choose the five that are most important. Drill each other on those facts.

· Look at the Practice FRQ’s from the evening review sessions. For each, come up with a brainstorm list of at least five facts, events, or examples. Write a thesis statement. (Be sure the thesis statement directly answers the question!)

· You could also look back at the questions listed on the Extra Credit Document Analysis page and do the same.

· Look over the multiple-choice tests from the evening review sessions. Make sure you can answer all correctly and explain the answers.

· Use the practice quizzes linked on the class website. Make sure you can answer all correctly and explain the answers.

· Take notes during the in-class review sessions.
