In completing this task, make sure the students use their vocabulary key fold to assist them with the character sketch. Also, require them to write a brief reflection of what they learned.
I enjoyed reading your lesson plan -- lots of hands on which I like. An idea.....would it be possible to make your character sketches VERY LARGE. That way they would be to enjoyed by all and would make quite an impact. Pat Lamkie
This assignment is a collobaration among history teachers and Resource teacher at Barack Obama Global Preparation Academy. The unit is a 12 day lesson plan. I am responsible for Lesson 3 edited by fmakhani on 1/6/2012
This is great! I like how you have them do a hands on activity. Kinesthetic ways of learning are an added bonus. Especially if they get to draw and be creative by creating flip books. Nice touch!
