Slavery Module: Lesson seven
The document provides instructions for a classroom activity where students will place cards on an anchor chart based on categories from Frederick Douglass's Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. The categories include how slavery affects slaves, how it affects slave owners, and the effects of the institution of slavery. The cards contain positions that support or oppose slavery. Students will then compare their placements with a shoulder partner.
