Hi 7th grade! The next topic we are learning about in class is the Jacksonian Democracy.
“From 1816-1824 President James Monroe oversaw one of the largest economic expansions of the United States. At the time, the country was ruled by one political party, the Jeffersonian Republicans. After serving two terms as president of the United States, the “Era of Good Feeling” the nation experienced under President Monroe came to a close. For the next forty years the United States would experience internal conflict over economic expansion, Indian removal, the spread of slavery, and political turmoil that threatened to tear the country apart.
1st - For a little background you will need to read the file below called, "Rise of Democratic Politics." Make sure you answer the questions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd - In the next piece of our instructional task on Andrew Jackson, we are going to analyze the presidential election of 1824. Four candidates from the same political party ran for President in 1824. Much of the country was divided on which candidate to support. You will examine the results of the election and then determine if you feel the election was fair for all the candidates.
