What educators are saying
Great resource to get students to understand the other side of Westward Expansion. I used "American Progress" by John Gast and compared the two.
This activity was great for getting students to analyze political cartoons. I love how it was broken up into manageable questions for students.
Description
This Chinese Exclusion Act political cartoon analysis activity examines the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and its implications.
The ability to analyze political cartoons and other primary sources is an invaluable skill for students. These sheets are a fantastic way to help your students begin to understand how to analyze political cartoons. After a bit of practice, analyzing political cartoons and other primary sources will become second-nature for them!
I have found these primary source analysis activities to be extremely valuable in helping to prepare my students for the state End of Course (EOC) Exam— a.k.a. the “Political Cartoon Test.” I really hope you find these useful, as well!
These analysis sheets include Level 1, 2, and 3 questions.
There are three versions of the Analysis Sheet included for your convenience.
• One-Page Version: This is a one-page version of the analysis sheet. Perfect for interactive notebooks!
• Long Version: Two-page version with additional questions.
• Class Set Version: Have a strict copying limit policy at your school? No worries! This version has the cartoon and all the questions from the long version on the same page. Perfect for making a class set that you can use with all your classes!
• Answer Keys: Answer keys with suggested answers.
