Today we did some more practice with helping verbs and this week's vocab. We shared our journals from the point of view of a Mexican revolutionary. Then, we read articles about the South American liberators, answered questions and created a timeline of events. We began journaling from the p.o.v. of Simon Bolivar. Then, we bounced around the room for a quiz prep activity.
Journal assignment: Simon Bolivar believed in liberty at all cost. This is what motivated him to be "the Liberator" of South America during the independence movement. Write a journal from the perspective of Bolivar, describing why you feel it is so important to free the South American people from the European control.
Homework: Students need to complete the South America journal entry and study their Haiti, Mexico and South America revolution materials for the quiz tomorrow.
