We have begun studying part of our state’s history, the Civil Rights Movement. One main idea that we need to understand is the concept of segregation. Segregation is when two groups are separated because they are different. In the South the races were segregated. Race means the color of your skin. We learned about this idea yesterday, when we discussed Ruby Bridge, the first black girl to attend an all white school in New Orleans.
Below, is a Slide Share with pictures of the South during segregation. The law was called, Separate but Equal. But, as you can see in the pictures, things were not equal between black and white citizens.

Dear:Mrs. Felter
I watched the adjectives and when it was done I saw a song about nouns and I thought that at the end of the day we could watch the video if we are good.
Bye I hope that we can see the full video tomorrow(:
Dear Shannallie,
That’s a great idea! I’m excited to see the video tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Mrs. F
