Description
These resources go with this video on, "Women in the Age of Reform" by History For Humans.
It teaches the status of women in the 1800s, the changes brought by the Cult of Domesticity, and how women's roles began changing due to the market economy- the factory girls earned wages and independence but also fought for their rights and tried to form unions. Other women were sparked by the Second Great Awakening and joined reform movements- they learn about Dorothea Dix and her work with the mentally ill, the American Temperance Society, and the Abolitionist movement, Lastly, the video teaches how the first women's rights movement in American history emerged with the Seneca Falls Convention but the fight would take decades longer.
As students watch they complete an interactive notesheet. It starts with a warmup, has fill-in-the-blank to support note-taking, comprehension and critical thinking questions, and a thinking map at the end to demonstrate their learning.
The video helps visual learners with on-screen text of the main ideas, powerful images, and it reviews the important concepts to ensure comprehension. Cut the lecture and spend more time working with students and supporting their learning with this video lesson!
After the video students can complete a quick auto-graded Google Form quiz or a hard copy PDF to check for understanding. Then, there is an optional extension activity that has students read a primary source (with supports!) on the first fight for women's rights from Lucy Stone. Students answer scaffolded questions to support deeper level thinking. There are answer keys for everything!
