We will be coloring and examining primary source documents. As we do this, I hope that you will pay attention to the manner in which we examine the primary sources, the geography of the nation in 1820, and the major issues of the slavery debate in the early 1800s.

Hopefully you can take away skills for analyzing DBQ documents as well as the stimuli that you see weekly on the multiple choice quizzes.
