Greetings!

Unit TwoUnit Two is looking at our history standards for what was going on in the colonies that had us moving towards independence. The Enlightenment provided ideologies in which to base our new government on, but there was no one cookie cutter perspective for how to complete items. We began to make items and have changed and evolved as needed through out our history. For instance, we started with only three departments to the Executive Branch, but we now have fifteen.

Inquiry We will continue the inquiry we started last week this week, as the content from our notes will correlate better with the information in the remaining portion of the inquiry. We will be looking further at the Enlightenments impact on our government and then deciding whether or not the Revolutionary War changed anything and if so, what.
