Blank map of the United States- useful for state memorization, migration and pattern mapping, facilitating class discussions, etc. Reinforce US History lessons by reteaching US Geography!

Use this quick tool to help your students reflect on the unit, semester or course that you have completed. I use this with my AP Human Geography students and my US History students and I love the conversations that it elicits. They have fun disagreeing and arguing, but in the meantime, they are reviewing and defending content and they are having to make real world connections in order to justify their opinion. I usually let them know that they can express their frustrations at the bottom, but t

I use this roadmap at the beginning of Unit 6 to give my APHG students an overview of the unit. The vocabulary isn't comprehensive, but it allows us to start unpacking the standards and discussing what we already know/need to know. I also post this to google classroom so they can use the links to study as needed. They keep track of questions that come up and we refer back to this throughout the unit in order to check in on their questions, studying, vocab, and progress through the "I Can" statem

This interactive notetaker and mapmaking activity provides a brief overview of the federal advancement of the United States from the 13 Colonies through the Alaskan Purchase. I walk through the slides with my students and we move through this activity together. However, this can also be completed individually or with a partner. Ideally, students will need a paper copy of the map and notetaker, access to the digital slideshow, and colored pencils/crayons to add to their map. Items Included: Gu

This detailed review of Unit 7 relies on this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOCelDeW19k) to guide students through the questions. Please check that the link works for you prior to purchasing the review. The video is 45 minutes long, so students usually need 60-90 minutes to watch, pause, and answer the questions independently. I do not watch this whole-group because the questions are detailed and it stresses them out to answer specific, lengthy questions while the video is still runnin

Students will work independently to research Propaganda during WWI and demonstrate their understanding via a guided slideshow. After they have considered what propaganda is, what it looked like during WWI, and what it looks like today, they will reflect on their opinion of propaganda and consider when and how it should be utilized.

Use this flexible assessment to allow your students to show their understanding of your current unit. You can adjust the group size, due date, topics, etc. to personalize it for your needs. This assignment elicits great conversations as groups justify their color coding and their reason for including each topic. I give my 11th graders one 90-minute block period for this. It's a little too much time for my fastest groups, but usually just enough for most groups. Downloads as a Microsoft doc s
