Today, Mrs. Modesitt’s Pierpont History 1102 class hosted the “Meeting of the Minds” banquet. These students researched and wrote 3 page papers on different people associated with the Civil War. They transformed into their character for the banquet. We have the Union leaders and spies, and Confederate leaders and spies sitting across from each other trying to reconstruct this great nation after the war. We know many didn’t make it to the end of the war but it was fun to infer.
Mrs. Modesitt always enjoys watching her students bring history to life at the banquet through lively discussion and reflection.
