For our lesson plan the next two weeks we will be covering the Revolution and the Constitution. Given its length, i will let you have two weeks to finish the packet, just ensure it is done by next Friday the 27th for full credit. It covers both Units 2 and 3, so thats why you have two weeks to complete it, no excuses. Also, I've prescribed two crash courses this week, so enjoy.
