This Unit Resource Teaching Bundle contains the following resources:
* Women during World War II: Primary Sources and DBQ's
* Women during World War II: Reading Assignment and Worksheet
* Women during World War II: Power Point Lesson

Topics in these resources including the following:
- Women Workers

- Nurses during World War I

- Women in the Military

- Japanese-American Women

- African-American Women

- Life on the Home Front

- Victory Gardens and Rationing

- Women Volunteers
- End of War Issues

Primary Source Analysis and DBQ's

The 27-page Primary Source and DBQ resource with 44 primary sources, 35 comprehension questions and 3 DBQ prompts gives students a chance to look in depth at women's experiences and contributions during World War II. The first two pages include Background, Notes on Primary Sources and Teacher Notes.

Here’s a chance for students to read documents and look at images that shed light on issues facing women and facing the country during World War II. These include photographs, speeches, newspaper articles, posters, letters, pamphlets and memoirs. As this was "total war", women were needed in all sorts of capacities in the workforce, the military and on the home front. African-American women also found opportunities, despite ongoing discrimination and segregation. Japanese-American women faced great challenges due to internment in camps, although a few were able to avoid that circumstance.

Assign just one, a few or all of the sources depending on time constraints and student interest. This can be completed in one or two class periods.

Each page of primary sources includes comprehension questions at the end in order for students to analyze perspectives, consider key ideas and identify bias.

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 (Historical Context, Audience, Purpose, Point of View and Why Significant). There is also a page at the end for students to apply the HAPPY process to the sources.

Three DBQ prompts are included at the end with instructions on how to create a response to the prompt.

An Answer Key to all the comprehension questions and the DBQ prompts are 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.

Please note that this NOT an editable file.

A bonus file is also included: How to Integrate Sources into DBQ's.

Every year there's that ONE holiday toy that captures the hearts of kids and sends parents off to the store to grab the last one. This mini unit covers the history of Christmas toys through four decades (some of which you will remember!). The unit is divided into three parts and relies heavily on student research. The parts can be done at your own pace over the course of a week or over several weeks.

Part One

-Includes two reading passages, one about the history of holiday gift giving and one about the rise of the toy industry.

-Research Project: Students are given four worksheets, one for each of the decades (1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s), and they must research toy trends for each decade

Part Two

-All of part two is in the included PowerPoint. This covers holiday advertising, starting with the early days of ads, through the department store catalog, and into modern television commercials.

-There are three links to toy commercials from the 70s, 80s, and 90s to watch with students

Part Three

-In part three, students will conduct an interview with an older friend or family member about their own holiday toy memories

-Final Project: Students pick one of three final projects to complete. Each project relates back to a different part of the unit.

This unit is geared towards a classroom, but is easily adapted to a homeschooler...in fact, I originally created it for mine! Every research activity is done solo and the PowerPoint can easily be used just for one or a handful of kiddos. This is also easily adaptable, in case you want to change anything for your students, but is no-prep, ready to go, as it is!

The Native Americans unit contains around 100 pages total with adapted text and activities. This unit is designed for students with intellectual disabilities and autism but can be used in general education elementary grades or ELL.

This unit addresses how Native Americans lived, how they lived differently in different parts of North America, and how they obtained food to survive. Through this unit, students will make connections between how they live their lives today vs. how Native Americans lived long ago.

This unit provides opportunities for repetition in the classroom, which is essential for students with intellectual disabilities, as well as the use of visuals.

There are three versions of the text (Levels 1-3). Level 3 is the longest version of the text. Level 2 is a shorter version of the Level 3 text. Level 1 is a shorter version of the Level 3 text but contains pictures in the text to assist students who learn more visually. All books have large print and numbered pages.

This Unit Includes 3 versions of the text, text comprehension questions (Level 3 version), 15+ activities, and 4 versions of an assessment test and a True/False assessment.

Activities included: Vocabulary Word Wall matching, Vocabulary definitions, Cut and paste activities, and more.

**Color Coded Activities for students who require more support.

Also included: Unit Implementation Suggestions and a Suggested Unit Plan for 10 or 5 days.

These units are focused on close reading in history/social studies, primarily in the discipline of history, and using text-dependent questions to help students gain a deeper understanding of informational texts. Unit 3 will offer suggestions for how to implement FL CCSS in the other related disciplines of civics, economics, and geography.

Why Close Reading Now?

I wear a variety of professional hats—Department Head, Social Studies Coach, Youth In Government Advisor, Interactive Notebook Team member for the District, Chromebook Leader, tech Leader, School-Based Leadership Team, AVID Tutor, and most of all Teacher. To keep myself honest (and humble), I spend a lot of time in classrooms watching kids and teachers at work. During the past few years, I've observed a transformation in the teaching of reading from an approach that measured readers' successful understanding of text through lengthy packets of comprehension questions to one that requires students to think about their thinking, activating their "good reader" strategies. The National Assessment of Educational Progress even made one of those strategies—making reader/text connections—a thinking strand within its framework (National Assessment Governing Board, 2002). For a long while, this approach looked ideal. What could be better than creating metacognitive readers?

This Unit Resource Teaching Bundle contains the following resources:

The 22-page Primary Source and DBQ resource with 26 primary sources, 27 comprehension questions and 2 DBQ prompts gives students a chance to look in depth at women's experiences and contributions during the Great Depression. The first two pages include Background, Notes on Primary Sources and Teacher Notes.

Here’s a chance for students to read documents and look at images that shed light on issues facing women and facing the country during the Great Depression. These include photographs, newspaper articles, newspaper ads government documents and oral histories. During the 1930s, the country faced increasing differences between urban and rural settlements, an expansion of government involvement in people's lives due to the New Deal, as well as progress in some areas while continued problems with discrimination and segregation. It was a difficult time for many women, although some women saw some positive developments.

Assign just one, a few or all of the sources depending on time constraints and student interest. This can be completed in one or two class periods.

Each page of primary sources includes comprehension questions at the end in order for students to analyze perspectives, consider key ideas and identify bias.

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 (Historical Context, Audience, Purpose, Point of View and Why Significant). There is also a page at the end for students to apply the HAPPY process to the sources.

Two DBQ prompts are included at the end with instructions on how to create a response to the prompt.

An Answer Key to all the comprehension questions and the DBQ prompts are 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.

A bonus file is also included: How to Integrate Sources into DBQ's.

The 15-slide PowerPoint presentation covers the Great Depression from 1930 through 1939. It is an ideal lesson to augment a lesson about the Great Depression and the 1930s or as a stand-alone resource for women’s history. The presentation includes descriptive text as well as primary sources. It is also a good resource during Women’s History Month!

Each slide contains information and graphics that highlight how women experienced the decade differently depending on geographic location, whether they worked, racial background, and other factors such as legislation and cultural expectations.

This file has been secured via Flat Pack but if you'd also like the Power Point file, please email me at cnonnemaker@gmail.com.

Whether for standard classroom use, Home Schoolers or for asynchronous learning, these are valuable digital tools.

Students can read this on their own in class, or 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 about women's contributions.
