Day 1and 2

Yesterday we talked about the black code laws and how they were unconstitutional so the south could make their own laws regarding African Americans. They formed segregation and also the Ku Klux Klan to get revenge on the blacks. Today we started to work on and talk about our projects in class.

Day 3 and 4

Yesterday we made posters regarding the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution. It created rights for African Americans after the civil war. Today we took notes out of the book about certain plans to rebuild the United States after the civil war. Then we colored a map according to which general would be in charge over the state.

Winnie the Poo

The past two days in class we have been looking over documents that were written towards the end of the Civil War. These documents included letters and or speaches written by U.S. Grant, Charles Sumner, Jefferson Davis and Abraham Lincoln. Also, last week we talked about which Winnie the Poo character each person in the class was. I think that I am like the Christopher Robin of our class. Winnie the Poo ( Mike ) and I have a deeper and more special friendship than the I have with the other kids in the class. I still have a good friendship with the other characters of our class but none of them would be able to replace the one I have with Winnie. Christopher Robin and I are similar because we are loyal, imaginative, supportive, funny, and caring.

Day 5 and 6

On Friday we watched a scene of a movie depicting what happened on the final day of Gettysburg. We saw that the Union won by stopping the Confederate assault. Today we talked about the Emancipation Proclamation. January 1, 2013 was important because it was the 150 year anniversary of when it was put into place.
