PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A TWO WEEK UNIT—Week 1: I’d like you to start the unit by watching the video, The Making of Hamilton, to familiarize yourself with the concept and story. Then watch the these excerpts from the show . Unfortunately, YouTube took the full show video off of YouTube on April 17th, so if you did not see it prior to that, you’ll have to watch the excerpts instead.
