During the third quarter, we focused on colonial and state laws that affected African American history.  We did this in many ways.  We studied the Bill of Rights, we did a group project, and we created a timeline, among other things. 

    For this benchmark, we reflected on our quarter-long learning.  We explained our process using our five core values: inquiry, research, collaboration, presentation, and reflection.  I spent a lot of time creating an outline, writing a rough draft, and editing it to make a final draft.  The finished paper came out well.
