Happy Gas Day!

First of all, happy gas day!! (weird). As I'm sure you remember, at the start of class I told you that we will never truly have snow days off from school. Well, apparently, I need to amend that to include the occasional day off for gas leaks!
This is what they meant by gas leak, right?
Below is your homework assignment due for class on Wednesday (Period 4) or Thursday (Period 7). Please make sure to have it for class, and spread the word to your fellow AP Gov classmates that there is homework due tomorrow in addition to the Chapter 3 Terms that were due today.

Homework:
  • Complete the assignment federalism case studies found on the blog in the class materials section.
    • Please complete the assignment on a separate piece of paper.
    • You will need your textbook for the assignment, however, if you don't have it the internet should work too!
  • Please review the first 20 slides of the PowerPoint titled The Roots of Federalism found on the blog in the class materials section.
    • We will review this in class, but it will be helpful for you to review it on your own first.
A reminder to Gil and Eddie that current event presentations are still scheduled to take place tomorrow to start class. If you have questions or would like me to review your PPT please post it to the blog tonight.

Finally, an example of proper case study format can be found here. Please try to emulate this case study when writing your own.
