11/27-11/28

Yesterday in history we learned about Dred Scott's lawsuit against his masters to free himself and his family. We also took notes on how slaves were not considered people, they were property and therefore could be taken anywhere free or not. For my thirty-day challenge I started a letter to my friend Sara who goes to Waring. Today in history we talked about and watched a video about the election for U.S senate in Illinois between Stephen Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. Then we got a couple of papers. One had parts of speeches they gave while running and the other had questions for us to answer about them. For my thirty-day challenge I finished the letter from yesterday.
