Teacher Has Students Write Gun Control Letters to Congress
By Bizpac Review. Parents of students in a 7th Grade social studies class in Georgia were shocked to find their children were tasked with writing gun control letters to Congress.
A social studies teacher at Hampton Middle School in Hampton gave his students an assignment that involved writing to U.S. lawmakers about passing stricter gun restriction legislation, Blue Lives Matter reported.
“You are trying to persuade lawmakers to have stricter gun laws to help prevent another school shooting from taking place,” read the topic of Corey Sanders’ assignment to his class.
“For this assignment, you are writing a letter to the lawmakers of the United States. The purpose of this letter is to pressure lawmakers to have stricter gun laws in the United States. Your letter should contain at least five complete sentences. Make sure that you use proper grammatical skills when writing your letter,” the directions read.
