* PowerPoint Presentation
* Reading Assignment and Worksheet
* DBQ's and Primary Sources

Perfect for Veteran's Day!

PowerPoint Presentation

This 13-slide PowerPoint presentation explores the experiences and contributions of women during the Civil War. It is an ideal lesson for the Civil War period or as a stand-alone resource for women’s history. It is also a good resource during Women’s History Month.

Each slide contains information and graphics that highlight women’s changing roles due to industrialization. It highlights the different experiences based on social classes as well as work experiences and early organizational efforts.

The PowerPoint slides are available both as PPT and PDF. Check the Bonus section for the additional file.

There is also an Easel Assessment. For Home Schoolers or for asynchronous learning, this is a valuable digital tool.

Reading Assignment and Worksheet

This three-page Reading Assignment and Worksheet provides an overview of the various activities, attributes and activities of women during the Civil War. Students will learn about the varied experiences of women, especially based on region, socio-economic status and cultural background.

Students can read this on their own in class, as a homework assignment or it can be a group activity in a classroom. It is also ideally suited for home-schoolers or independent learners who want to learn more. A Worksheet with questions based on the reading is included, along with an Answer Key.
Reading Assignment - 2 pages
Worksheet - 1 page

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

Primary Source Analysis and DBQs

This 20 page DBQ and Primary Source Analysis activity gives students a chance to delve deeper into women’s experiences and contributions during the Civil War. In addition, there are two Document-Based Questions (DBQs) available for students to complete.

Included is a one-page sheet that explains what primary sources are and how to analyze them using specific questions through a process called HAPPY. Primary sources include speeches, essays, a declaration and cartoons. Each page of primary sources includes questions. There is also a page at the end for students to apply the HAPPY process to one source. An Answer Key to all the questions and the HAPPY process is available at the end of the packet. This is excellent practice for all high school students, particularly Honors and APUSH students, but all students will find these resources engaging.

Students can read this on their own as a homework assignment or it can be a group activity in a classroom. It is also ideally suited for home-schoolers, college students or independent learners who want to learn more. Teachers can assign just a few sources to analyze or the entire packet. Student time will vary.

There is also an Easel Activity which allows students to answer the questions at the end of each primary source online. For homework purposes, Home Schoolers or for asynchronous learning, this is an especially valuable digital option.

This is part of the Women in American History Series which includes PowerPoint lessons as well as Reading Assignments and Worksheets, Primary Source Analysis and DBQs and Activities for other eras. Teaching units listed below with links but resources available individually as well.

Vocabulary Builder Fill in the Blanks worksheets Level 3

By Peter D

Note to Teachers

This set of worksheets consists of 111 pages of Fill in the Blanks exercises. Each page has at least ten words or phrases for students to fill in the blanks in the given sentences.

Learning new vocabulary is an important part of language development. Instead of simply memorizing vocabulary lists, it is beneficial to learn new vocabulary words in some kind of meaningful context.

Fill in the Blanks exercises are effective at helping students develop their language skills in numerous ways. Each vocabulary word must be placed in the blank based on meaning of the sentence. This task challenges students to first understand the meaning of the sentence and then select the appropriate word. It is an effective task for developing cognitive skills as well as general language skills.

The vocabulary words in these exercise pages were selected from various stories that we have studied. These words are found quite commonly in written texts so it is useful for students to acquire these vocabulary words.

If students are unfamiliar with some of these words, then students are encouraged to use a dictionary or work together in small groups.

I have found that students enjoy these types of activities and that students can develop various useful skills related to language development.

Levels: There are four sets of vocabulary builder worksheets divided into four levels. The approximate range of grades for each level is listed below.

Vocabulary Worksheets:

Vocabulary Builder Level 1: Grades 1-4

Vocabulary Builder Level 2: Grades 3-6

Vocabulary Builder Level 3: Grades 5-8

Vocabulary Builder Level 4: Grades 7-10 (under construction)

4th Grade Sight Word Sentences Booklet - 260 Words

By Sign with me TOD

This product is made for:

  • adapting instruction
  • differentiating instruction
  • on level learners
  • ESL/ENL
  • Deaf Education
  • Homework
  • Classwork
  • Homeschooling
  • Bell Work
  • Virtual Instruction
  • Remote Instruction
  • Struggling readers
  • Struggling writers
  • review

As students are learning the ULTIMATE 260 - 4th grade sight words in this product, they will be provided with each word, an example of the word used in a sentence, and the opportunity to make up a sentence themselves using the word. I find that with my students who are Deaf/hard of hearing/ELL, when they make up sentences using each newly learned sight word, it helps them to remember how to spell the word, the meaning, and how it is used. My students love booklets of any kind that they can refer back to. Once they have come up with their sentences, they can include pictures that they print and cut out, draw pictures freehand, or find pictures in a magazine that they can add to each page of the 4th grade sight word booklet that matches each sentence they come up with. This gives students the opportunity to connect what they are learning about in the classroom with their own personal interests. This booklet is rather lengthy, so instead of printing it out, you can display it for the entire class to see as well. This booklet is perfect for students that are on grade level as well as students who require instructional information to be adapted.

If you are interested in the product above, the sight word checklist may be of interest to you as well.

Pre-Primer – 4th Grade Sight Word List Checklist

https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Pre-Primer-4th-Grade-Sight-Word-Checklist-8438220

This product includes checklists for the following sight words:

pre-primer sight words - 40 words

primer sight words - 52 words

1st grade sight words - 41 words

2nd grade sight words - 46 words

3rd grade sight words - 41 words
