Slavery Essay

You will not have a spelling/vocabulary test on Monday. Instead, I want you to use the extra time to work hard on your slavery essay. I pushed the due date to Wednesday. Please do your best, as it may be entered in two contests, and it is worth 100 points. When in doubt follow the 3 by 5 essay format.
