Why Government? Note Taking

SOL 2A, 1A

Objective: The student will develop the social studies skills responsible citizenship requires, including the ability to examine and interpret primary and secondary source documents.

Homework: No.

 

Why Government?

Let's ask Thomas Hobbes and John Locke. Your homework was to read the iCivics reader "Why Government." Today, we are going to take a look at your notes and see how effective, or ineffective your notes are.

Next, we will look at a few sources from Dartmouth College's Academic Skills Center and strengthen our note taking. Our ultimate goal is to model the Cornell University template for taking notes and incorporate summaries and doodles.
