Nothing Due, but progress on Columbian Exchange Assignment Foor Origins Assignment and Colombian Exchange Annotation Article 

Colombian Exchange Day 1

Objective(s):

Given a chromebook with access to Google Docs, students will be able to analyze the various food products, diseases, and human cargo transferred between the Old World, Africa and the New World, and explain with detail the effects, both positive and negative experienced by each participant.

Rationale: Understanding first impressions of groups who had never seen or interacted before will provide some valuable insights about an exchange of cultures which is somewhat impossible to replicate in the 21st century

Evidence: Being able to evaluate and analyze first encounters will demonstrate that students understand the isolation the native people of the Western Hemisphere had for all those years.
