Social Studies 8

Students will spend today and tomorrow learning about the similarities and differences of the North and South. Now that they are expert note takers, students will be reading through Chapters 12 and 13 looking for specific information about these two regions. Students will then write an essay (2 paragraph minimum) that compares and contrasts the North and the South prior to the beginning of the Civil War. This essay is due Monday, March 15. Class time is allotted for students to work.
