This one-page Guided Reading and Assessment is for Grade 6-12 students and can be used in a variety of ways by teachers including close reading, direct instruction, independent practice, homework, or as a sub lesson. This is also well-suited to Homeschooling.

This Guided Reading document provides a description of the worldwide phenomenon known as the Hallyu Wave. This is a quick way to introduce students to the rise of South Korea’s economy through the export of cultural products such as K-pop or K-dramas between 2000 and 2020. The Assessment questions on the second page ask students to identify key concepts and information that they just read. This helps students to strengthen their close reading skills with a topic with which they might have some superficial knowledge. Most students have heard of BTS or other Korean K-pop bands but this text reading gives more historical background as to how South Korean culture has gained global popularity in the past two decades. Most students learn about the Korean War in their World History or US History classes but rarely about anything else relating to Korea. This supplements their understanding of South Korea with a look at a significant post-war development.

This resource includes:

1. An informative 404-word passage entitled “What is the Hallyu Wave?” The text describes the development of South Korean culture between the years 2000 and 2020.

2. An Assessment with 9 questions. These involve determining key facts, ideas and vocabulary from the passage and interpreting text. The questions align with Common Core Informational Standards

3. Three Enrichment Activities that can further an in-class period or for students to complete on their own. These activities are suitable for group or individual work.

4. An Answer Key with all answers to the questions.

5. A list of sources for bibliographic reference.

This is also available as a digital resource through Easel so students may complete it online.

I created this resource to use with my own students while watching the Oversimplified American Revolution Part 1.

It includes during-watching questions, comprehension quizzes, a timeline activity, and a word search to help students understand and engage with the content.

After seeing how useful it was in my classroom, I thought, "Why not share it with other teachers?" So, I've made it available on TeachShare for anyone who wants to enhance their students' learning experience with these engaging and effective tools.

Sharing inferences with partners and the class improves communication skills and helps students articulate their thoughts effectively.

Diverse Perspectives:

Encouraging students to consider different interpretations promotes an appreciation for diverse perspectives and helps them understand that history can be viewed from various angles.

Contextual Learning:

Providing historical context after the activity solidifies students' understanding, reinforcing the connection between visual stimuli and historical events.

By incorporating this activity into the daily warm-up routine, students can develop a deeper appreciation for history, enhance their analytical skills, and actively engage with the learning process.
