History HW

Hi lovely girls,

GREAT job on your projects this week! I was very impressed - especially with that singing Abby! :)

-Here's your HW for next week.

Reading:
-The Civil War 1850-1895 pg. 115-122
-Eyewitness to the Civil War pg. 246-283, 293-341, 351-377 (This looks like alot, but you don't have to read all the stuff on the sides, just read the main narrative. Of course you can read all the cool extra stuff if you want to!)

Memorizing the Gettysburg Address:
In the same teams as you had for your battle project....
Team 1: Ellie B, Kayla, Hannah
Team 2: Ellie W, Abby, Nicki
You will memorize the Gettysburg Address.

-You do not need to get together w/ your groups but should probably divide up the Adress in 3 parts. (email or call eachother)

-You will then present it in class. And I hope it will be with some nice dramatic reading :D You can even dress up if you want.

I think we should have a Civil War party. Come dressed up if you want, bring some food, and after our discussion we'll finish Gettysburg (hopefully finish it).

Loves!!
~Lauren
