Today we began by watching two short clips from the film Marie Antoinette.  Students saw Versailles and the way the Queen of France first arrived and then was forced to leave her palace.

Next we went over the homework (The French Revolution Bring Reform & Terror) and discussed the Reign of Terror in gruesome detail.

Finally students completed their first Document Assignment, asking them to read primary documents and make some decisions about people’s motives.  If you missing this, or if you need to finish this assignment, the questions are here, and the documents are here.  Remember that students need to use the documents to support their paragraph answer on the last page.
