After Vacation Outline

Hello kids. The last two weeks before vacation were kind of wacky because of the video project and the day that I missed. Therefore, for my sanity and the sanity of those of you who need structure, I've written an outline of the things we're going to cover after vacation.

Monday 2/22 - Expansion of Big Business in the US. Economics terms. Game - "Captains of Industry."
Wednesday 2/24 - Unions, growth of cities, immigration. Game - "Captains of Industry"
Friday 2/26 - Quiz on topics covered on Monday and Wednesday. What is the identity of America 1870-1900? Intro to research paper - "reflection of America."
