Activity - In pairs, the students will face one another with one partner
forming part of an inside circle and the other forming an
outside circleHowdy! Looks like youre my partner!
- When a concept is named, the partner in the inside circle will
have 20 seconds to explain as much as they can about it.
- When they hear Switch, the outside partner will add as much
as possible to the idea. The outside partner has had 15
seconds to DOVE (Expand on the idea in particular).
- When they hear Rotate, the outside circle will rotate to the
right (counter-clockwise) to work with a new partner and a
new concept.
(If all students seem to be on right track, move on to next one. If
there is dissonance, have pair on right track share what they
talked about)

For example, this table group is their own country that has their
own raw materials (cotton balls/bolls), and this table is a
different country that is skilled at sewing.
- If the 1st table needs clothes, what can they do?
- If the 2nd table runs out of fabric to sew with, what can
they do?
- What about if the 2nd table needs SO much cotton that
they buy all of the 1st tables supplies? How can the 1st
table get more?
There was a specific route that colonial ships would follow
called the TRIANGULAR TRADE ROUTEbecause it allowed for
England, the colonies, and Africa to trade materials and slaves
between the different continents.
In groups of 3, look at your lists of businesses in the
northern and southern economies that would depend on
having helpwhere could they get that help? What
would happen to the economy if they didnt get that
help?
During the colonial periodthe period we are talking about with
the 13 Coloniesthere was something called the SLAVE TRADE.
The Slave Trade was the act of procuring (obtaining),
transporting, and selling human beings as property to work for
another individual. We usually associate this with the way
Africans were forced to come to North and South America to
work as slaves. What could they TRADE to have slaves?
