JA 8 B Civics: Feb. 7-11


This week we will begin by taking our test on the Roots of American Democracy. Then we will examine the Articles of Confederation. This was the first form of government created after the American Revolution. We will discuss why there were some problems with the Articles, & how they created tensions within the new country. We will investigate the reasons why the Articles of Confederation were indeed a "weak" form of national government, & why there was a need to revise them.
