The class started a new lesson called Stats and Strategies. To help the class better comprehend this lesson,, the teacher assigned each individual to read documents about the North and South and collect information. Once information on Statistics and strategies that Union and Confederate did, students were assigned to then create an infographic based on the statistics (visual chart or diagram that helps represent information). The information collected also answered the essential question,“How did the differences between the North and South affect each region's strategy and success in the Civil War?”
Creating the infographics helped students better understand the situations faced by the Union and Confederacy at the start of the war. I chose information about the population, slave population, business, and strategies and tactics to win the war. The North had a higher population than the Confederacy which made it more of an advantage because they were able to leave some people behind to work on farms and in factories. Also, the slave population was higher in the South which led to a higher production of cotton and made it able for the South to keep their economy stable. The North had a higher percentage in everything else in business because of the number of factories and the high population. In addition, the Union had better strategies than the Confederate states. The information listed above helped me better understand the advantages that Union and Confederate states and the tactics they use to fight the war.
