3. THEN,  students will read over the section, “Sectional Issues of the Antebellum Period” - Part A is asking you to look at the political, economic, and social of each region (or section of the country) (**NOTE: this is weird, I asked your class to make a living graph of social, political, and economic issues …...like we almost, maybe might be able to use both of these sources in a discussion??!?!)
