February 2018, Masters Class

Ok, I am doing this backwards by posting Masters first. Yes, I know. I am really excited about this. Here is a list of leaders in the early 1800s. For this timeline, our county was founded, we had the Constitution and Washington had served two terms as president. John Adams won the election of 1796 with Jefferson as Vice President. we will be learning Jefferson through Jackson.

From 1800. Things were very different from today. There are amazing leaders in our history. Look at this list review the list before you decide. you will be choosing two leaders. try to choose different ones from the list..Give a brief introduction to their history (family, birth, their early life and school, what they did for their greatness, and their death) this should be two or three paragraphs. for each of the two.

Then write a couple of paragraphs how these two fit together and their differences. Why are these two important in US history? How would our nation be less if they did not exist? How do their accomplishments effect us today?

Here is the list: Choose two (2):
