__**Video 1**__ //After watching the clip on the Navigation Acts, Compare it with what you know about the Navigation Acts.//


 * -** After watching the clip on the Navigation Acts, i noticed that i had already heard and knew a majority to all of the information that was provided. In the video i did get to hear a few names that i had not heard before and what they did in part of the Navigation Acts. In the clip, i also discovered that the colonist got some positive outcome and that England supported industries in the colonies such as lumber and fur, which would work to the English's advantage but to the colonist as well.

//Did the students get their facts correct? Where would you improve their work? Why?//


 * -** The students did get their facts correct. In the clip i had already known most of the facts they provided, so i knew that they must have been correct. I can't really find anything that i feel the students should work on, they did a great job presenting their work.

__**Video 2**__ //After watching the video, Summarize the main idea, and add some CCQ's - you may need to review it several times to get the big idea.// Its really crazy how people(slaves) were sold between other people and how poorly the African Americans were treated. I thought cotton was one of the largest things sold and traded with slavery, whenever you think of slavery, the idea of cotton come up. The main idea of the video is that depending on where you were as a slave depended on what type of work you did.
