We started out today with a brief examination of Shay's Rebellion, specifically we tried to bring some nuance to the traditional narrative that it was the triggering event for the creation of the Constitution.  We followed this with a DocBlock over a set of personal letters between Abigail and John Adams.  After this, the remainder of there class was spent in Writer's Block, learning how to write intro and body paragraphs for LEQ Essays.  You can find the slides we used in class on the "Writing Tips" page.  Your task this weekend is to write your rough draft Intro and ONE Body paragraph.  You also need to have Chapter 8 ready on Monday!
