Are you a US History teacher looking for a 1st day or week of school activity that gives students a visual preview of your course? This activity was "born" from the frustration of all things "chaos" the 1st week of school. From schedule changes, to assemblies - that 1st week is nuts. I wanted an activity that would get students excited about what we would learn in class - beyond the normal "get to know you" activities that happen that 1st week. This is a "two for one lesson" - meaning I've included 2 versions. (see below) Each version can be used as a gallery walk, in stations or simply projected up on your screen. It covers topics from the Gilded Age to the Present. Version 1: I've included 4 images per set. For each set, there are 3 "correct" images and one "incorrect" image. Students will work together to ... identify all images (as best as they can - no penalties for wrong answers) identify the image that doesn't fit with the other 3. Come up with a TITLE that best fits the 3 images that are correct. Version 2: I've included 4 images that all fit with one title (no incorrect answers - this is the easier version). Students will work together to . . . identify all images (as best as they can - no penalties for wrong answers) Come up with a TITLE that best fits the theme of the 4 images. What's included? 2 versions of the activity - mentioned above each version includes 8 sets KEY for each version Student recording sheet for each version (optional - students can write on notebook paper) It's completely editable - in PowerPoint Looking for additional 1st day of school activities?

This is a fantastic activity to run after your students have taken the AP US History test. Instead of just watching historical films for the remaining portion of the semester, why not allow your students to do what they do best- argue with each other! This debate allows some students to act as an American president and some of the class members are historical figures that will be evaluating their job performance in a series of debates that is modeled after the March Madness basketball tournament. Each round has a specific set of topics that the presidents will debate and, if successful, will move on in the tournament to the championship round. My students told me that this was one of the most engaging and exciting activities of the year. Materials Needed: Prizes for the winning team (optional) Bracket- digital or poster in the classroom Timer Scoring Rubric Copies

This US History EOC review activity is a great hands-on way to get your students critically thinking about 4 units: Gilded and Progressive Era US Imperialism & World War I Roaring 20s Great Depression & the New Deal Why I love it: It helps students practice the difficult skill (for many students) of cause and effect in a non-threating way. It LOOKS like matching (which seems easy for students) - but it's a bit more. What's included: 104 sets of cards - 208 total covering the units mentioned above. Blank cards for you to create your own if you wish. How to use in your classroom? There are several ways to use including in stations, whole class where every group is working on the same topic and for small group tutorials. I always suggest running these cards off on different colored paper. When a student drops a card on the ground, you'll know which baggie to put it back in. I always get the helps of Student Council or NHS students to help me cut these out. Once you have them prepped, you can used them year after year! Just print an extra copy as your KEY.
