Today in History we had a substitute and read over multiple worksheets about an idea of Abraham Lincoln's. This idea proposed that the constitution was a picture of silver and the idea of liberty to all was an apple of gold. The constitution acts as a frame to the idea of liberty because it supports and protects liberty to all. Liberty to all is an idea that does not discriminate against anyone and was created in the Declaration of Independence.
Today in English we begun the class with a grammar paper and then a quiz on our reading for Huckleberry Finn. After taking our quiz we discussed the chapters we had read and the questions from the quiz. After this lengthy discussion, we were given lots more papers to work on in our notebooks.
If the Principle of Liberty to all was applyed in the book Huckleberry Finn, then the book would be a lot different. Huck would not have anyone to go on his adventures with becasue Jim would be with his family because he would have been given liberty and freedom. Without Jim with him, Huck wouldve had a very hard time navigating and surviving. My prediction for if Huck never had found Jim on the island would be trhat he would have stayed on the island and eventually would have to go back to shore once he ran out of food and supplies.
