The Pack contains associated resources for the learning experience, typically in the form of articles and videos. There is a teacher Pack (with only teacher information) and a student Pack (which contains only student information). As a teacher, you can toggle between both to see everything.

The history of slavery in America goes further back in history than the invention of the cotton gin and southern plantations. The earliest settlers in the northern and southern colonies owned slaves. When the North became more industrialized, the need for slaves diminished and slavery became a regional practice, focused in the South.
Objectives:
