Freedom Rides (in 40 word notes)

≈ Comments Off on Freedom Rides (in 40 word notes)

Read the article on Freedom Rides in Civil Rights section.

Summarise each section in 20-40 words (some might be even less)

READ the whole section first

THINK ….. and then WRITE 2-3 sentences on what was the most important info. Just name examples, don’t retell the whole story.

If this is your first time doing this, it is OK to find it difficult 🙂
