Day # 8 Monday 10/1

Two BIG TASKS today

First task: Rate Flipgrids:

You will be handed a slip of paper with 9 #s on it. These are the flipgrids you will watch--3 from each category.

You must watch 1 assigned Flipgrid then complete this ranking sheet
After watching one, you will watch the next and then rank it --do not just watch all 9 then rank them all--watch then rank, watch then rank, watch then rank….until you are done watching and rating all 9

After you have completed watching and ranking all 9 one by one, you will need to rewatch yours and rank it.

In all you should complete a total of 10 surveys.


Second TASK: DBQ Documents


Mr. Clark will show you a DBQ document example.

EXCERPT FROM THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, January, 1863



. . . That on the first day of January in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three [1863], all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof [who] shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom. . . .



Now you need to get ready to make yours like that:

1. Make a copy of this document LINK TO DOCUMENT TEMPLATE
2. Rename it "LASTNAMEDBQDOCUMENT"
3. Share it with Ms. C
4. Now go back to your primary source and try to make it more like a DBQ document:

• Determine what you will extract from that source so it makes sense but is not over 150 words.
• You may not change any words
• When you take words out, include an ellipses (...) see example below:

Excerpt from a pamphlet prepared by Baton Rouge Committee on Registration Education in the early 1900s

“Requirements for Registration


To register to vote in Louisiana...He must as discussed above, be ‘of good character,’ ...He must also be able to prove his identity. Under the Constitution, ‘if the registrar has good reason to believe that he is not the same person, he may require the applicant to produce two credible registered voters of his precinct to make oath to that effect.’”
