Civil Rights Movement: Jim Crow Era Literacy Test (with Answers)

This is a 30 question Literacy Test given by the state of Louisiana to disenfranchise African Americans in the early 1900's. As stated in the directions on the actual document, individuals were given 10 minutes and had to receive a perfect score.

Vietnam War: The Draft - Who Stays, Who Goes?
Some of the best group discussions I have ever seen came out of this assignment, which asks students to "serve" on a Vietnam-era draft board to determine who goes and who stays from 10 short, realistic bios, and defend their decisions. Students get worked up and passionate! It really helps bring the tension and frustration of a draft (and allowing exceptions to the draft) to life.

Early Government and Constitution - Create-a-Country Activity
Personal Note: My students LOVED this project. I used it after teaching the American Revolution and before introducing the Articles of Confederation. There was a LOT of debating among the groups, even though I let them choose the groups! Be prepared for this activity to last several classes, as students will debate the issues for as long as you let them. It was a great introduction for the Constitutional Convention, as I reminded them of how difficult it was for their groups of 3-4 to form
