Monday: Labor Day Holiday. Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers and is traditionally observed on the first Monday in September. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894.
Tuesday: Explain the reasons for the growth of representative government and institutions during the colonial period. (Letter Home is due today. Counts as a test grade).

Review for Unit 2: Colonial America test tomorrow, Thursday. (Graphic Organizer, handouts,study sheet.) If time permits: Kahoot and/or Quizlet Live. I will share these on Google Classroom as well as a Screencastify unit test review. Students may come in before school for a short test review as well.

Reteach/Retest for those who may have failed the test will be the next week. Students will be given a pass to come in for the unit reteach. (Reteach is NOT during the class period.) Students MUST attend the reteach to take the retest. The highest grade a student can make on a retest is a 70. If a student chooses NOT to attend the reteach, they forfeit the opportunity to take the retest.
