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.

Thanksgiving Crossword
This is a Thanksgiving Crossword Puzzle. I always feel that if you are going to take the trouble of printing off a crossword puzzle for everyone it should a least last 10 to 15 minutes and be somewhat challenging. Most of the crosswords take 2 minutes to complete. I have included a version of the crossword without the word bank for the brave of heart. I hope this works for you. I use all of my products and are classroom tested. Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving. Make sure you check back Scorton

Political Parties: Find out if your students are conservative or liberal!
Students can have very strong opinions on many of the topics that surround the news today (often their parents' opinions, but opinions all the same). But do they really know if they are truly conservative or liberal: democrat or republican?
This activity explores all of their beliefs and thoughts on a number of world/national issues and begin to filter their political preferences to one side of the spectrum or the other. This IS NOT an exercise to pin students against students, but rather to

Gerrymandering Puzzles!
The purpose of these materials is to allow your students to try the idea of Gerrymandering for themselves!

There are many ways you could use these worksheets but I suggest at the very least, as a part of your lesson, that you check out CGP Grey's youtube channel and show your students his segment on gerrymandering --> (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mky11UJb9A

Big Sky, Big Money Frontline PBS researches Political Campaign Financing
This Frontline video explores the use of excessive money in Political campaigns today. It is really current and delves into Super Pacs and 501 4c groups. They interview Democrats and Republicans involved in these activities. It hits home the fact that the general public doesn't know the difference between candidate ads and issue ads. Nor does the public realize that outside groups are spending more on campaigning than local candidates and political parties! It questions the decision from the

Pilgrims: The True Story of Squanto and the First Thanksgiving
This is always a favorite of mine -- I still have former students message me on Thanksgiving to wish me a Happy SquantoGiving (it makes sense after the activity). Squanto lived a fascinating, heart-breaking and inspiring life, and deserves so much more attention and credit than we give him. This reading (with visuals) walks students through his remarkable story, which intertwines with the Pilgrims and explains how the first Thanksgiving came to be. It then dives into the interesting history of h
