Problem: History
Write out all three essays way ahead of time on a word document (2 long paragraphs for each essay or 6 paragraphs). You do not need to cite any sources or have links to other sources for this "in-class" writing. It should be in complete sentences, in paragraph form (a paragraph is approximately 6 to 10 sentences), and leave a space between paragraphs. The following three topics are fairly short and can be done with two long paragraphs each or maybe more paragraphs depending on how you write it out.
The three main topics include:
Topic I: Write one paragraph on what the Navajo Story "Changing Woman and the Hero Twins" shows about Indian values, way of life and religion. Then write a second paragraph on what the Blackfoot Indian Story of "The Buffalo Girl" shows about Indian values, way of life and religion. Do not tell the two stories over again (since we know the stories already) but tie the stories into to what the Indians believed, how they lived, and how they viewed the world by citing things that happen in the story.
Topic II: Discuss the two of the main "religions" that were involved in the founding of the Thirteen colonies, the Puritans (be sure to describe the Salem Witch Trials too - Puritanism at its worst) and the Quakers (Society of Friends). Remember to discuss these two religions as they were in the 1600's and early 1700's (not as they are today). One long paragraph on the Puritans and one long paragraph on the Quakers should be enough. Try to give examples and details about what these two religions were like in the 1600's.
Topic III: When we discuss "The American Revolution" we mean much much more than just military battles in the Revolutionary War of 1775 to 1783 but a period of change that went all the way into the 1790's. But first discuss in one paragraph how many people argue that this was not really a Revolution at all (that things did not change that much). Then discuss in another paragraph how many other people argue that this was indeed a true and important Revolution (a 180-degree change in things) in human history.
