Thanks for all of the suggestions for my observation last week. The suggestions were great and really gave me some ideas as we go through the Civil War unit. The observation went well, after a short United Streaming video, I used a civil war letter written by a young man to his family. There was great discussion before the students started the assignment. The students wrote their own letters as if they were the young man’s brother or sister.
