Finishing Context, Starting Research

Today, we'll spend the first 5 minutes commenting on your New Administration Current Event for this week.
You'll spend the rest of the time in class:

1. Finishing your New Deal Webquest
2. Starting the research for your assigned topic. If you don't like your assigned topic, you may trade with someone or choose one that is not assigned. 
3. Before you start your research, make a RESEARCH PAPER folder inside your U.S. History folder on your drive.  You need to be sure to keep ALL of your work for this project in the folder.  The first document you make for this is a research log in which you keep track of the databases you search, the key words you use and the articles you read.
4. Note that your first assignment for tomorrow is to read the linked article and then use search terms from the article to find two more from either the American History or Gale Virtual Reference Library Databases.
