Revolutionary War to prelude to Civil War - Exam Review This is your US History exam review. Please pass it on to your friends - not everyone has given me their email address. Feel free to email me if you have any questions. We will devote classtime to reviewing for the exam. The exam will be composed of two parts: a short answer section and a multiple choice section. You may bring in ONE three by five inch index card to use on the short answer portion only. Use both sides of this card to record notes useful in answering the short answer questions. You may not refer to these notes during the multiple choice section of the exam. Short answer section: Two
of the four questions shown below will appear on the exam. You will
answer both questions. 2) Describe two events or circumstances that contributed to the Civil War. How did these events contribute the conflict between North and South? 3) Describe the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. Discuss two of these weaknesses in detail including how these two issues were addressed in the Constitution and/or Bill of Rights. See page 69 of your textbook. 4) Describe Henry Clay's American system and discuss whether or not it was the right choice for America in the middle of the 1800s. Discuss its long-term effects on the nation. See page 126 of your textbook. These terms will be used
to form the multiple choice portion of the exam. |
