Sketch's Website has French Revolution Vocab help. Thanks Sketch! Gee, thanks for making class for students that much more simple. Students should use Sketch's Vocab help but write down definitions using their own West High vernacular (your own words). Mr. P will NOT give students credit if they copy Sketch's definitions word for word. Also, Sketch was known for pulling off clever tricks like giving the wrong definition at times to make sure students are thinking and NOT just copying definitions. It is best to check Sketch's definitions against other sources.
For students seeking additional reading on the French Revolution, Mr P's Random French Revolution Book Picks for Students are:
a) Stepping in the pool - French Revolution for Beginners by Martin McCrory & Robert Moulder
b) Liking the Shallow End - A Short History of the French Revolution by Jeremy Popkin
c) Into the Deep End - The French Revolution & Napoleonic Era by Owen Connelly

6) Take P Alumni Peymaneh's Quizzes on the French Revolution. Peymaneh's created these quizzes based reading from the old World History textbook. Still, the questions are generally useful for any quiz on the French Revolution. Peymaneh created this legacy project only after living in the US for 8 months. Some of her quiz questions do contain grammar and spelling errors. Mr. P did NOT correct them on purpose. He wanted to also showcase this legacy project to demonstrate what a student can produce despite facing academic setbacks (i.e. Learning a new language and adapting to a new culture). Are you a student facing your own academic setbacks? Mr P challenges you to step it up like Paymaneh, overcome academic set backs and create a legacy project that can be used by students in the future!
