Do your student's need to know the basics about our third president? This includes two worksheet activities that will introduce students to Thomas Jefferson and the "Revolution of 1800."

My students really struggle with planning out their writing. This outline has really helped them organize their essay responses and has greatly improved their writing! I use it with DBQs too, but then they also have to add which documents go with which paragraphs.

Here's a writing assignment I give my 8th graders after studying the Declaration of Independence. It has students create their own declaration from an issue they are having in their own life.
