Open: The tomb holds the secrets of China's first emperor. Close: There is mercury surrounding the tomb, so what if there is something worse inside. Open: We should open the tomb, because it will help us learn about Qin ShiHuang's life.Close: We should keep the tomb closed, because there is a dead corpse inside.  Over the last few weeks we have learned about China's first emperor Qin ShiHuang. He left behind a great legacy. Students had to write an argumentative essay to persuade the reader to open the tomb, or leave it closed.  Ms. Ledingham came and participated in a decision alley, each student took one sentence from their essay and in the end Ms. Ledingham was persuaded to open the tomb. -Mrs. Mortensen
