Tues/Wed, September 14-15

Life is all about change, and so this week we made a change and had our block days on Tues-Wed, instead of Wed-Thurs. We were able to talk through the end of the Civil War and saw some pictures of some of the craziness that was April, 1865 (the end of the war, assassination of Lincoln, etc.). If you need the notes, get them from the sidebar, titled Ending of/Impact of the War (or very close to that!). We also did an activity where you had to give a persuasive argument as to why your side would win (North or South) based on the advantages that side had. The South would definatly have a harder time with this, but they DID have advantages as well! Afterwards, we discussed major effects/consequences of the Civil War.
