Journal+Format

Presidential Blogs

Presidential Blogs or journal will be the primary way of grading for this unit. Your journals are to be hand written and kept in a folder. If you do not have a folder we can provide you one but its important that you have one. Your journal is going to act as the recording device for this unit and will ultimately be your final grade. The journals will have important terms (which we will define together in the beginning of the class) and will also have a journal entry for each day during our unit. The journal entry can be in paragraph form or list. The more important things is you record the information from the day's lecture. We will do our first journal entry together so I can show you what I am asking for.

Objective : Record the important terms of the day in the beginning of class Record what you learned from the day's lesson and why it is important for learning politics Tell me your opinion telling me if the day's topic is an efficient way of running government.
