The Enlightenment Philosopher Scramble


 

In any period in history there are certain people that you must know about.  The Enlightenment could never have happened with out the forward thinking of hundreds of thousands of people, but only a few standout.  John Locke, Thomas Hobbes, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Baron de Montesquieu are four of the most important thinkers to ever live! You are going to work in small groups to learn all about these important thinkers and find out why their thoughts are so important to us today.  Then, you will share what you have found with the other groups in class.
