Daily Check-in
Retrieval Practice: McCarthyism
- Reminder! DO NOWs and Retrieval practice will start being graded based on having a valid attempt (not a percentage grade) completed by the time class starts (8:15 for period 4 and 10:15 for period 5) Late practice won't be accepted for credit because I go over the answers, which kind of ruins the point of YOUR brain remembering these things but I still encourage you to use it as a study tool.

Objectives
