@TaylorH_17 @Britannica The Watergate scandal and the Nixon impeachment seemed very important to me because they were both defining moments in history that ultimately affected our daily lives today.

Here's a helpful comparison chart of WWI and WWII via @Diffen. Did you know that WWI had around ten different names! Some include war to end all wars, the Kaiser's War, and the European War. Learn more about the wars here. #APUSH220

In class today, someone asked a question on what the other countries thought about the Great White Fleet. Here's an article about what Australia thought via @Australian_Navy. Seems like they liked it considering the two public holidays! #APUSH220

The Battle of San Juan Hill was mentioned in the Stephen Ambrose article because TR was one of the leaders. This article gives some detail into the battle that made Roosevelt president and it can also show the growth of the US Navy. @HISTORY #APUSH220

Here's an article form @HISTORY that compares the isolationism of the 1920s to the idea of "America First" today. America cannot decide whether or not to stay in foreign relations. See all the flip-flops here! #APUSH220

This article from @TheAtlantic talks about where the monopoly game railroads came from. These were four large railroads called "truck lines" which acted as a massive river system and they linked many major cities. Find out which here. #APUSH220

#APUSH220 Found this video from @khanacademy that reviews western expansion and it's development in case you were looking for a review for the quiz. It talks about some of the causes of the expansion, natives, and a lot more as well.

@RSeidel_NBCT I went ice skating for the first time ever and it has become one of my favorite things to do! I'd love to skate in Chicago sometime as well.

Found some paintings by Paul Nash, a famous war painter. He and his brother were commissioned as World War I painters and they were so good at war paintings as a result of serving themselves! Check out their paintings from @I_W_M #APUSH220

This article from @Britannica helps to review the Whig party and to really understand it. Don't forget that they were very opposed to "King Andrew" and his democracy. #APUSH220

I was thinking about Andrew Jackson and the $20 bill and I was wondering why he got on it in the first place. Turns out the Treasury Department really doesn't know, and, if they do, they aren't sharing. Learn more in this article @washingtonpost #APUSH220

[Jessica Bergman @Jessica57932816]

Here's an article from @britannica talking about Peggy Eaton and her life. She was originally named Margaret Eaton and after John Eaton died, she was married to a dancing master who later ran off with her granddaughter! #APUSH220

I liked this cartoon from the book and wanted to share it. This represents Andrew Jackson's cabinet resigning midway through his presidency as well as public confidence and reform collapsing in the back.
