Welcome to our AP US class blog! We will cover the inception of the United States, the building of this nation by founding fathers and mothers, and the trials, tribulations and triumphs leading Americans up to present day. Our blog will serve to keep us up to date on assignments, as a forum for survey and discussion, and as a launching pad to the rest of the web which will help aid our research as historians. Enjoy!

You will have 5-10 minutes at the start of class to gather yourselves for the debate. Tonight, learn about the supporters of the different sides of the debate and the documents that express their viewpoints. Consider what the other team will argue and prepare rebuttals!
