GATE Classes will be given a colonial play to read Monday night. Students in period 2 will need to read it thoroughly and be prepare to play any role by Wednesday . They will need to complete the "The Background Information Sheet" and the "Points for Discussion and Debate".
GATE Students will be assessed on Friday and Monday on their familiarity with the topic; their grasp of the importance of the idea central to the play; and, their understanding of the importance of people like this in our country then and now. I encourage students to discuss this play and topic with a family member at home for while the topic is controversial to many (for various reasons) , the framers saw "separation of church and state" central to a healthy democracy.
