📖 US History catch-up: New England & Wigmakers

Check completed work first. If unfinished, read the New England Primer image, answer the teacher’s questions using the digital option, then watch the Wigmakers Edpuzzle and answer its questions. Both were due Nov 1; tell an adult if more time is needed. Do not mark unfinished work done. Wigmakers means people who make wigs. If you have not already finished this US History video assignment: 1) Click “Wigmakers video — Edpuzzle” below. 2) The first page is Amanda Smith’s 5th Grade US History class; enter your usual class nickname. 3) Follow the assignment instructions, watch the video, and answer the questions. If it does not open, do the other history work in this block; this is an access problem, not something you did wrong.
