      Students are asked to use their prior knowledge about what they know about immigration and this will allow the teacher to gage their level of understanding about the topic.
  • Ask for a handful of students to reveal their nationalities, backgrounds, or countries of origin.

  • After watching the video, discuss the following questions: What was the most memorable moment in the video? Why did that moment have an impact on you?

      4E: 4E understand how a student's learning is influenced by individual experiences, talents, and prior learning, as well as language, culture, family, and community values
  • Explore the notion of perspective taking and how it leads to empathy. Ask students, Why is it important both at an individual and a more global level to understand and respect each other’s experiences? (People’s experiences inform their viewpoints.) Have students brainstorm other ways a person can use to become more aware of how another person is feeling, thinking, or behaving and why such insights are important.

  • As the groups deepen their understanding of their characters, they should write down or express their ideas through drawings. Circulate among groups and ask guiding questions to help students answer the questions. For example, “What did you read or hear that makes you write/draw that?”

  • After discussing some of the core skills that are needed to be empathetic, present students with their assignment as well as a rubric. Ask them to choose a folk or fairy tale or myth and rewrite it from the perspective of a different character. (They can choose a hero or heroine, but it may be easier to choose the villain.) How would a more empathetic understanding of the character change the narrative? How would it affect the meaning of the story?

      This fits the standard 3G because the teachers is asking the students what their thoughts are about Lincoln. The teachers gets to know the students a bit because it is about getting the students ideas and there's no right or wrong answer.
  • Culminating Activity: Creating a Personal Timeline Review the Lincoln timeline that students assembled at the beginning of the lesson. Point out that each event has a date, as well as information and a picture about that date. Remind students that the timeline begins with the earliest date and goes until the most recent date. Explain to students that it is now their turn to make a timeline about their own lives. Ask them to think about two important things that have happened to them in their lives. Ask for some volunteers to share this information. (Some possible answers: the day they were born; going on a fun vacation; learning to play an instrument; getting a special gift; starting school; making a new friend; etc.) Hand out blank sheets of paper to each student. (Hand out 1 sheet of paper for each student creating a timeline online and distribute 3-4 sheets for each student creating a timeline by hand.). Ask each student to write down the two events that they thought of on a sheet of paper. Now ask them to think of 4 more important things that have happened to them in their lives and to write those down, as well. Ask students to create a timeline on which to put these events. Creating timelines by hand: Ask students to draw a line from left to right across the middle of their paper. Then ask them to draw small vertical lines to indicate important years in their lives. To create a longer timeline, students can tape 2-3 pieces of paper end to end and then draw a horizontal line across all the sheets. Creating online timelines: Direct students to the “Timeline Generator” at TeAch-nology.com (Note: Instruct them to scroll to the bottom of the page to see the timeline tool.) Ask students to put their 6 events in chronological order in their timelines, starting with the earliest event and ending with the most recent. If students are using the online timeline tool, ask them to print out their timelines once they have finished. Encourage all students (whether creating a timeline by hand or on the computer) to draw/paste images or photographs to go along with each event. After students have completed their individual timelines, ask for volunteers to explain/ present their timelines to the group.

      This supports standard 7I because the students take the learning about Lincoln and create their own timeline about their own lives.

  • After the segment, bring out the drawn outline of the hat. Ask students to tell you some facts that they learned about Lincoln in the video. Write the facts (or ask students to write the facts) on the hat. (Some possible answers: Abraham Lincoln worked as a congressman in Washington for one term; he returned to Illinois in 1849 to practice law; he was a father; had 2 children; he needed to earn a living; he educated himself; he read; he taught himself Euclidian geometry; he traveled with other lawyers, judges and sheriffs to different county courthouses; made close friendships; his time working as a lawyer was an important time in his life; the courthouses that Lincoln worked in are now tourist attractions; he was involved in over 5,000 court cases; he took almost any case.)

      This section could support 4E if the teacher is purposeful to create/develop the conversation to not just explain terms used but connect the events in Lincoln's life to lives of the students in the classroom. It doesn't specifically call out to do this, so the teacher would need to KNOW to actively do this during the lesson.
  • Ask students to think about and discuss the following question with their group: If someone wanted to learn about this class just by viewing 5 things in this classroom, what 5 things would you select for him or her to view? What could he/she learn about the class from each object? Once they have selected 5 objects, each group should complete one Our Things Student Organizer for each object. Students should write down the name and/or draw a picture of the object and write a brief description of what someone could learn from viewing that object. (For example, a dictionary- shows that they can read and like to find out about new words, etc.) As an alternative to this activity, students can describe 5 items from their home that tell a story about their family.

      This supports 7I because it does a great job of connecting the lesson to the lives of the students and invites them to express themselves in the same way they did as a class about Lincoln. The teacher will get to know the students in fun and deep ways with this lesson!
  • Ask: What is one type of job that you think he had before becoming President?

      How will you use primary sources in your classroom?
  • gracejohn2021 on 27 Sep 21
     
    I think that primary sources could be really neat to tie into social studies lessons. For instance, you could use a journal entry recounting an event from someone as a primary source, and then learn about that event and have students write what it would be like if they lived through that event. To tie in culturally relevant pedagogy, I think it would be creative to use a journal entry from someone in history discussing a tradition or important part of their culture, and then students in the class can write their own journal entries about their own culture and an important tradition or aspect of it.
