Today in History we read over a document called "Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina From the Federal Union" which was the document that nullified california. After reading this document we answered questions about it and annalyzed it's meaning. After this, we watched a video about seccesion and the states in America that did partake in in. these states were called the Confederate states and were in the south and left the nation after Lincoln became President.
Today in English we had a quiz on Huckleberryb Finn. After this quiz we discussed the previous chapters we had read and the answers to the mini quiz. The remainder of the period was spent doing a large amount of papers given to us for our notebooks.
A connection i made between Huckleberry Finn and the seccesion of the south was that in the book Huckleberry Finn, Huckleberry runs away, which is a lot like how the southern states ran away from the nation. When both these states and Huck ran away, they were leaving something theyb didnt agree with. The states didnt agree with how the nation was being run and Huck didnt agree with how his life was being run.
