    In this activity, students will use a Twitter generator tool to create an online Twitter debate between Union and Confederate leaders from the Civil War era. Students will be paired into groups assigned to represent either the Union or Confederacy. They will research their side and decide whether to take on roles of average soldiers or famous historical figures. The pairs will then plan a seven tweet reply chain debating from their assigned perspectives. Students will post screenshots of the debates for others to enjoy and help remember viewpoints and events from the Civil War unit. The goal is to have students create funny scenarios that subtly reinforce their understanding of the material.
