Today we will begin reading Henry David Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience" and annotating the work to better understand it. Please read and take notes (highlight important passages, annotate, write definitions, and translate into your own words) to make sure you understand. The text is available here online and in the book on pg. 369. Annotations are due on Wednesday (2/19) and we will have a quiz on the reading on Friday (2/21). You will notice that these texts are building on each other as we move along. Take a look at Thoreau's bio to help get context for this work. Civil Disobedience.
Please meet with me if you have any questions I would be happy to go over with you individually or in small groups.
You have a history test on Chapter 11 World War 1 on Wednesday (2/12). Make sure you are looking over your notes and studying key concepts to prepare for the test. the test will be similar to the quiz and you will have to demonstrate your knowledge about the war and time period in complete sentences.
