In his letter to President Jefferson, Benjamin Banneker wrote that he hoped Jefferson would help to insure that the values set out in the Declaration of Independence were extended to black Americans also. What else do you think he said in his letter?

Notes:



In Current Events, we read the article entitled A World Without Chocolate? Oh My! The article was from Dogo News. The next time you eat a piece of chocolate, be sure to savor it, because according to two of the world's largest chocolate makers - Mars, Inc. and Barry Callebaut, the decadent treat may soon be in short supply. The problem? We are consuming the candy at a faster pace than farmers can grow cocoa.



Presentations: Our New Year's Resolutions presentations will be on Thursday 12/18/14! Please join us from 1-2. We will be serving some snacks and drinks! Afterwards, we will be creating a gingerbread house for our craft. Let me know if you can come!
