Directions for today’s activity. You will “date” and speak to at least 16 Antebellum reformers today. When “dating” ask them questions on the handout I will give you. Both people should speak back and forth. When “dating” write the name of the reformer, the category they belong to (abolition, women’s rights, temperance, education, prison) and the answers to some of their questions.
You will have 1.5 minutes with each person. When you hear the music rotate the person facing the back of the room will rotate.
First and third row moves to the right and middle row moves to the left.
Have fun and maybe there will be a second date for you in the future
