Florida Civics State EOC Exam Review
Hi guys, I've spoken to a few of you through emails. This resource needs to be updated for the new exam! However, the test specs, benchmarks, and sample questions are almost identical to the old exam. I've decided to leave it up because it still covers most (if not all) of the tested benchmarks. A new version is coming soon, which you'll be able to re-download. Thanks for your patience!

I Have a Dream Speech Analysis Discussion Guide
This speech analysis discussion guide highlights the rhetorical devices used by King with margin annotations and correlating color coded lines underlined in the text. I use this key to show the students, "How did the author say it?" (a common core step when doing close and critical reading). Using this activity helps the students understand the speech better and helps them with evaluating what King was saying.

Resistance to Reconstruction: Sharecropping, KKK, Jim Crow Laws
I found that students lacked a true understanding of the institutionalized racism and social/political/economic challenges African Americans faced in the 100 years between the end of slavery and the first breakthroughs of the Civil Rights Movement. To provide more context, I created this assignment explaining sharecropping, the KKK, Jim Crow Laws, Poll Taxes, Literacy Tests, and Grandfather Clauses. It is very informative and great for class discussion afterwards and linking to modern times.
