Summary of Class 12/4-12/5

Once we all arrived in class yesterday, we were assigned to look and answer questions on a cartoon. This cartoon showed the four candidates of the 1860 election either ripping or fixing a map. My peers and I believe that the map represented the slavery and the issues it caused. We then learned who the other two candidates (John Bell and John C Breckenridge) in this cartoon were except Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas. Today in class, we had an EdCafé. The EdCafé was about the people that were involved in the Civil War period. We were each assigned to talk about one person, that being who we had for our voice thread. We had to explain who they were and how they could have been the most effective. After the leader spoke, the other people had to debate for their person. This EdCafé was in hopes to learn some people and problems that are bound to show up in our test tomorrow (Thursday the 6th).
