I CAN: DESCRIBE THE IMPORTANCE OF COTTON TO THE ECONOMY OF THE SOUTHERN STATES.
FOCUS QUESTION: PREDICT: WHY DO YOU THINK THE NORTHERN ECONOMY WAS MOSTLY BASED ON INDUSTRY (FACTORIES) AND THE SOUTHERN ON AGRICULTURE (FARMING)? PUT THE ANSWER ON THE STREAM PAGE!
Good morning, scholars! I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
Last week was so exciting as we talked about westward expansion and the rise of industrialization (factories) in the North. As the population expanded, there were innovations (inventions) in transportation, communication and agriculture. Your participation in the Google Meet sessions was phenomenal!
This week we are going to focus on the South, we had a much different economy and way of life than the North. The southern economy relied on the harvesting of the large-scale harvesting of crops like cotton and tobacco. The evil institution of slavery was in full effect, despite the resistance of northern states.
As the nation expanded westward, southern and northern states fought bitterly over the issue of slavery.
This fierce disagreement would eventually lead to the Civil War.
We have to so much to discuss and learn this week. Let's keep up the awesome momentum!
