Students picked up the simulation where they left off on Tuesday.  This time representing members of the 3 Estates at the meeting of the Estates General.  At the end of the simulation students were able to see that the Estates General failed to make any changes or create any new taxes because of the way that the 1^st and 2nd Estates were allowed to outvote the 3^rd Estate. 

Students deepened their understanding of some of the historical figures in the French Revolution by reading about either Marie Antoinette, or King Louis XVI and answering the questions at the bottom of each article in their logbooks.

Next we discussed the few vocab words that we didn't have time for on Tuesday and students were assigned a new homework assignment: The French Revolution Bring Reform & Terror.
