Welcome to U.S. History Blog (A)

Greetings and welcome to our new class blog.  We begin with a series of articles from students in the class. These "reporters" observed the proceedings of the famous "monkey trial" of John Scopes, a Biology teacher (1925).  We read parts of INHERIT THE WIND - a play based on Mr. Scopes' trial.  Students wrote their articles in a variety of language as an international press corps covered this trial. Other students in the class were asked to read any one of the articles and make comments on it (using the COMMENT feature of this blog.)
