=Civil War= =Grade 8 Project=

The 8th grade students researched different roles of people involved in the U.S. Civil War using **primary sources** in order to understand the different points of view. Primary sources are first-hand information such as journals, photos, and other documents of the time period. They used their information to create avatars on Voki.com. Click on the avatars to hear each character introduce himself or herself and explain their role in the Civil War. Let us know what you think of the project using the discussion tab.
