Mt. Nebo History: January 2020 Apprentice

Study/Learn

Complete all of the following:

1. Read A History of Us, volume 10, chapters 36-37 OR Watch "The Remarkable 20th Century: episode 8" on Amazon Prime. Pause it and take notes in your commonplace book

2. Study the note cards from this month from the Dictionary of Cultural Literacy

3. Print the timeline that I created HERE or create one of your own with at least 12 dates, add 5 additional events from world, national or your own family history.

CONTEST: See if you can find important events for your time line in other areas like science, entertainment, sports, etc. We will vote on the best or most unique one found! There will be a prize :)

4. Create a notebook page or two for your History binder on the events from the 1970s. Be creative and artistic. Include a summary of the chapters you read and include any applicable pictures and maps. Write a paragraph or two about your conclusions about these events. What do you think about them?

Know/Understand

Choose 1 EVENT (pay attention, I've changed this one up from a person to an event) from your
reading OR FROM YOUR FAMILY HISTORY to give us a 2-3 minute report on in class. Fill in what event you chose on the google doc so we don't duplicate.

Become/Serve

1976 was the 200th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the creation of the United States of America. A lot was said by our church leaders that year and the year leading up to it on God's hand in the formation of America as a nation under God.

Read one of the following General Conference talks on the destiny of America and the blessing of liberty that we enjoy here.
