More Subjects, Slavery, and Discrimination

Hello students!

Grammar

We learned that relative clauses add at least one more subject and verb to sentences.

Slavery and Discrimination
Then we saw the slide show with pictures showing how life was segregated or divided in the American South before the Civil Rights Movement. I thought that your pre- and post-Civil Rights Movement skits were wonderful! Wasn't it interesting to be white and Black for a few minutes? I hope your reaction at see these signs, especially the one that said "White's Only No Spanish or Mexicans", reminds us that a struggle for justice and equality is one that we all should be fighting.

Today we will be watching another slide show about slavery and then we will be making one ourselves about discrimination. We will brainstorm about discrimination, find images of discrimination and create PowerPoint slide shows.
