Today in Socials we had to write stories for different parts of the revolution. Some of those parts were the Fall of Bastille, Elected General, Paris and the King and the Great Fear. We had to write from a person in 17th France's point of view. My group chose a soldiers who was sent to defend Bastille from the mob but ended up joining in. After we did that activity we moved on to more notes and power points and talk about the abolishing of the monarchy by sending Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette to the guillotine, the two main political party's of France. The Girondists, which were the more conservative party and the Jacobins which were very radical and out there with there ideas. I learned about how the Jacobins came to power after a power struggle with the Girondists. I learned about the Jacobins Suspect Law which stated that all nobles and people who held office could be arrested and killed. Well I thinks that's where we left off for today so see ya. :)
