Subject: [CASL-L] Middle School Research HelpHi All,
I got a last minute request from our 7th grade social studies teachers asking for more accessible resources for research on the African slave trade. They would like to start researching for a debate on Wednesday, but I'm teaching all day tomorrow, so I don't have a lot of time to look through sources. The research will be for a debate on the following: "Who benefited most from the slave trade?".
- European Merchants (British, Spanish, French, Portuguese etc.) benefitted the most.
- Kings of African Nations (Kongo, Angola, Dahomey, etc).
- Plantation owners in the colonies (this could be in North America, South America, or the Caribbean).
We subscribe to Britannica, Gale, and FreedomFlix, so I sent them those links to get started. Has anyone used any helpful websites on this topic? We're looking for sites accessible to reading levels more at an upper elementary level.
Thank you!Allie JohnstonHar-Bur Middle School
