In case you didn't receive a hard copy in class, here is the assignment. Follow all directions. Use your 2.5 Notes Sheet to complete the assignment. Due Friday.
Use the attached reading to take notes into your 2.5 Notes Sheet. Be thorough! You should already have this sheet in your binder on the back of 2.4. I've attached a blank copy just in case. -Mr. S Use section 1 of the reading for "Napoleon's Rise to Power". Use section 2 of the reading for "Napoleon Rules France". Use section 3 of the reading for "Napoleon Creates an Empire". Use section 4 of the reading for "Napoleon's Fall".

Yes, this is HW6. The numbering system got a little messed up. - Mr. S Read pages 656-661. Complete all questions in complete sentences on a sheet of loose leaf paper. Please use a pen, NOT a pencil! You may also type and print. You do not need to write out the questions... just answer them! Due Wednesday, 10/23. 1) Vocabulary Builder: Find one word in the reading that you don't know or are unsure of the meaning. Look up each word in the dictionary. For each, write out the word, the definition, and an original sentence (a sentence that you created yourself) that uses the word. Choose regular words, not social studies key terms that are boldfaced in the text. Do NOT leave this blank because you think you know every word -- you WILL lose credit! 2) Describe two reforms made by the new National Assembly. Why were many peasants angered by some of the reforms? 3) Why did Louis try to escape in June, 1791? If you were a French citizen, how you would feel about this? Explain. 4) Identify and describe the ideas of the three different groups that developed in the Legislative Assembly. 5) What problems were facing the government in the summer of 1792? What major change occurred in September? 6) Who were the Jacobins? As they gained influence, what two important decisions were made by February 1793? 7) Who was Maximilien Robespierre? Why was his period of rule known as the Reign of Terror? 8) Read the quote on p. 660. How did Robespierre justify (give a reason or excuse for) his use of terror? 9) Express Your Opinion: Do you agree with Robespierre's defense of his actions? Can violence ever really "flow from virtue"? (The word virtue means "high moral standards") Can it ever be used to make society better? Is a government ever justified in using violence against people that it views as a threat? Explain in a paragraph that is at least 5 sentences long. HONORS SECTIONS: Explain in at least a two-paragraph response (5 sentences each).
