So on Tuesday we started learning about the mistreatment and murder of the Tainos of Hispanola ... but who's guilty of their murder??
OPENING ACTIVITY
With your SHOULDER PARTNER (that means, just 2 of you), discuss how European exploration began (who was responsible) and what was Christopher Columbus trying to do when he set sail in the 1490s.
Today we will finish reading the indictment and make your final decision as to who is guilty of the Tainos death. We will then hold an actual "trial" to determine who is really at fault. We will then finish up Module 2 and begin Module 3.
