1 A.P. UNITED STATES HISTORY READING SCHEDULE Text: James A. Henretta, et. al America s History. Sixth Edition. Boston. Bedford/ St. Martin s Kevin J. Fernlund ed. Documents to Accompany America s History, Vols. 1 & 2 In order to keep up with this reading schedule, students will need to plan on 7-8 pages of reading a night. This is typically one chapter a week. Students will benefit by reading ahead during the week so that they come to class prepared to ask better questions and engage the material at a higher level. This schedule is for the textbook reading only. Reading primary sources and other supplementary sources will also be part of coursework. I will assume that the reading is taking place according to this schedule. Quizzes based on the reading assignment will be given periodically. If the class falls behind schedule, for whatever the reason, the balance of the work will be made up independently. For example, if we postpone a test one day, it will mean one less day for the next chapter. Should we find ourselves multiple days behind schedule, independent work may be assigned over vacations or long weekends. PART 1 - THE CREATION OF AMERICAN SOCIETY, Ch.1 Worlds Collide: Europe, Africa, and America, Native American Societies Europe Encounters Africa and the Americas The Protestant Reformation and the Rise of England Ch. 2 The Invasion and Settlement of North America, The Rival Imperial Models of Spain, France, and Holland The English Arrive: The Chesapeake Experience Puritan New England The Eastern Indians New World Ch. 3 The British Empire in America, The Politics of Empire, The Imperial Slave Economy The New Politics of Empire,
