Tuesday, February 5
Today, all graded assignments were handed back. We went over the worksheet from the movie, The Children's March. Part 2 of the power point "Struggle for Equality" was revisited. The African American struggle for the right to vote was completed - and we visited the PBS website link (on the power point) that walked us through the effort to try and vote - even taking a literacy test. We listened to an audio clip from PBS of an African American man tell his story of voting. We started Women's Suffrage on the power point - up to the Sojourner Truth slide. Tomorrow, we will start with Alice Paul and Iron Jawed Angels.
