Social Studies

Dear Parents,

We have been looking at the concept of Federalism, and how it was tested through the first years of America's history. Particularly, we have focused on the system of slavery and how it was to become the ultimate test of Federalism.

After looking at various primary documents that attempted to justify the system of slavery economically, socially, politically an religiously, we discussed how this propaganda was used in order to ensure that slavery was completely entrenched in American life.

We then used the techniques seen to create our own counter propaganda.

There is a test coming up next week, try the links below for practice quizzes or ideas
