These 8 pre-numbered maps and 16 quizzes will save you hours upon hours of creation and make preparation for assessing students on geographic locations effortless. Each has been designed with a numbered map, reproducible answer sheet and teacher’s answer key.

When the class reaches the larger continents such as Europe, Asia, and Africa, it is suggested that the instructor assess the student in sections or regions before assessing them over the entire continent. This will allow students to learn a sections/regions of countries at a time rather than overwhelming students with learning the entire continent at once.

These can be used over and over again throughout the year!

Thank you in advance for your purchase. I hope these will save you time so that you can regain some of your personal time. Enjoy!

Includes 42 Pages:

• Canada & United States
• Central America
• South America
• Western & Eastern Europe
• Continent of Europe
• Western & Southern Asia
• Central & Eastern Asia
• South East Asia
• Continent of Asia

Lately, upsetting things have been happening in the world and our students are very much aware of them. Tens of thousands of people have protested on the streets to make their voices heard about all kinds of issues that students care about including racism, inequality, policing, discrimination, etc. Protests have spread across the nation and seem to rival the historic demonstrations of the Civil Rights Movement. It is important for us to bring these topics into our classrooms—because students want to be part of the conversation and share their thoughts and feelings about the very issues that affect them.

Each Primary Source Analysis and DBQ resource gives students a chance to delve deeper into life of women during the Colonial Era (1607-1763), the Revolutionary Era (1763-1783), the Early Women's Rights Movement (1840-1865), the Civil War (1861-1865), the Industrial Revolution (1865-1920), and the Women's Rights Movement (1865-1920) Through reading, review and analysis of sources, students will be able to determine what issues and challenges faced women during each era and how they contributed to society.

*Colonial American Women: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (21 pages) *Women of the American Revolution: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (19 pages) *Early Women's Rights Movement: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (22 pages) * Women in the Civil War, 1861-1865: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (20 pages) * Women during the Industrial Revolution: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (20 pages) * Women's Suffrage Movement, 1865-1920: Primary Source Analysis and DBQs (20 pages)

Along with primary sources, there are Document-Based Questions (DBQs). Additionally, each resource includes a one-page sheet for students that explains what primary sources are and how to analyze them using specific questions through a process called HAPPY. Examples of primary sources include cartoons, diary and journal excerpts, indenture contracts, political cartoons, letters, and more. Each page of primary sources includes questions. Each resource includes two DBQ prompts which help students to weigh and evaluate the significance of women's actions, thoughts and contributions during the era.

A page near the end of each resource allows students to apply the HAPPY process to one source. An Answer Key to all the questions and the DBQs and the HAPPY process is available at the end of the packet.

This is excellent practice for all high school students, particularly Honors and AP 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. A Worksheet with questions based on the reading is included, along with an Answer Key. Each resource can take up to 2-3 class periods depending on whether they complete the entire packet or just complete portions of it.

Do you or your students like WWII historical fiction? Consider having your students read Hearts of War, a novel about a Nisei soldier who served in the Military Intelligence Service and a woman who served in the Women Army Corps. In writing this book, I wanted to bring an unknown aspect of history to light. Available on Amazon or Kindle and I appreciate any reviews! Thank you, Christa Nonnemaker
