Want to get your student’s engaged in the study of history? Want to get them out of their seats? Want them to analyze primary sources? If you answered yes to all of the questions then this product is for you!
This is a complete 5 station lesson for the causes of the Civil War. This is a perfect lesson to teach all the causes of the Civil war in one 50 minute class peri
od. I have my students spend 6-8 minutes a station. There is also an extra two page homework assignment if they finish a station early.
There is a handout provided that students carry around and complete at each station, which is clearly labeled to keep them organized. This lesson is designed in Word and Powerpoint, which can be adapted to fit your classroom. This is a print and use stations lesson! No need to modify unless you want to 🙂 The class period goes so fast with stations!
