Sample History Term ID card: (pretend this is an index card--put the term on the front, and the definition on the back)**
What is a historical ID (identification)? It is more thoughtful than a mere definition. You must, in one clear, concise sentence, explain the term and more importantly, it's importance to history.
 * ===Proclamation of 1763=== || ===While attempting to hamper the growth of the colonies beyond its influence, the Proclamation of 1763 forbade Colonial settlement beyond the Appalachian mountains, thus fueling American resistence to those limitations as settlers continued to push westward.=== ||

Document ID. We will use this to make a notecard to help us remember documents we have studied. On one side, put the name of the document, the author, the date. On the other side, write one or two clear, concise sentences that identify the document and its importance to U.S. History. Add any notes, or associations that will help you rememer the document.

Sample Document ID. When Columbus first arrives in the Americas, his Captain's log reflects his impression of the natives as being poor, harmless, and friendly, who can easily be converted to Christianity; further, he allows his men to cheat the natives in exchange for Cotton he can present to Isabella. His log denotes his view of Indians as poor and peaceful, wearing gold, thus easily conquered for that gold. Columbus--Las Casas--Arawak--slavery-pursuit of gold ||
 * = Columbus' Captain's log, 12,13, 24th of October, 1492 || Presented to Queen Isabella, 1493
