The other half worked closely with me on completing/understanding their notes/chart.

| You're a delegate, readying himself for the Philadelphia Convention in 1787. Research your colony/state so that you are better prepared to vote when the Constitution comes before you. You have a set of questions. Now, each state does not have information specific to it but each state has information specific to its region and that's how I expect you to TRY to come up with information about your state. Tell me about their economy, their agriculture, their businesses. Tell me about the social classes. Were there slaves, business owners, landowners, farmers, etc? What about the government? Who rules the roost? What about this way of life do you think is great? Difficult? Are there certain things this colony would definitely argue to protect during the Constitution convention? Answer your questions to the best of your ability. |
