We continued our discussion and analysis of Colonial American society today with an exploration of the Great Awakening and it's effects on society. We then tore apart some maps and data to help understand the diversity of colonial society in terms of religion, cultural makeup, and economic activities. We ended with a brief introduction to historical writing as it is differentiated from other types of writing you have learned in other classes.
This weekend you need to finish up your textbook notes for Chapter 5 and you may want to spend a little time reviewing the maps of the 13 English colonies as well in case there is a quiz on that sometime. To help in that endeavor, under Period 2 of the website, you can find a blank colonies map and some directions for completing it as a study tool.
Have a great weekend!
