We began class with a warm-up about Friday's video. Students answered two questions and we had a quick discussion.
Next, I gave a lecture on indentured servants, slaves, and Bacon's Rebellion. Student took notes as I spoke. See last week's blogs for PowerPoint and note sheet.
At the end of class, students read an account on Bacon's rebellion. As students read they recorded all of Bacon's actions on the "Bacon- Hero or Criminal" sheet.
Bacon- Hero or Criminal?
Bacon Reading
Bacon Reading (Academic Level)
After reading, students determined whether Bacon's actions show him in a positive or negative way. They then weighted the events from 1-3 using the organizer. Finally, they tallied-up the positive and negative actions to determine their views on Bacon.
Homework is to finish the "Bacon- Hero or Criminal" organizer with at LEAST 5 events listed on the organizer.
