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? 14 Close reading files for your entire school year! Close Reading Topics Included: English Bill of Rights Mayflower Compact Montesquieu Thomas Paine- Common Sense Join or Die Declaration of Independence- Excerpt Declaration of Independence- Natural Rights Articles of Confederation Federalists Papers #51- Need Government Federalists Papers #51- Separation of Powers Alien & Sedition Act Cane Fight- Preston Brooks and Charles Sumner Analyzing Uncle Toms Cabin Emancipation Proclamation Eli Whitney Whiskey Rebellion Temperance Movement Woodrow Wilson WWI JFK Address Judicial Branch Legislative Branch Foreign Relations Paying for Government Power of Government

A zip file reader is needed to open the compressed file.

Students will work in cooperative learning groups to learn how laws are made in the US and understand the roles each branch of government — legislative, executive and judicial plays in the law-making process. Students will work in cooperatively to complete a How Laws are Made order game. Students will then participate in a reading activity focusing on the roles of the 3 branches of government. This lesson is used to introduce students to the processes of the branches of government in the US.
