FOR GOOGLE DRIVE

Aim: What were the causes of the War of 1812?

Digital, 1:1, Interactive, Social Studies learning!

Included in this product:
• Cover Page
• Student-centered situational Do Now question
• The Causes of the War of 1812 reading passages with scaffolding graphic organizer outlining the impressment of sailors, interference with American shipping, British support of Native American resistance, and the War Hawks
• Application/Closing/Higher Order Thinking Question
• Answer Key for Teachers

Students will analyze the close-reading passages to understand the causes of the War of 1812. Students will complete the graphic organizer based on the readings.

★★ Directions for Activity: Students will be assigned to groups. Ideally, it would be groups of four students. There are four reading passages. Each student will be assigned one part of the graphic organizer (one document each). They will each read about their assigned cause of the war of 1812 and explain the issue and how it created conflict between the United States and Great Britain. Once each group member has completed their assigned section of the graphic organizer, each group member will discuss their section with the group and have the other students fill in that section of their own charts.
★★NOTE★★ Since this is a 1:1 resource, you do not have to put your students in groups. They can complete the assignment on their own. But you can, of course!

Adheres to Social Studies Common Core Standards - research, application, literacy, vocabulary, creating arguments with evidence

Differentiation: cooperative {students may work in pairs/groups according to teacher's discretion for graphic organizer}; students argue their opinions and make predictions using relevant examples and details from the lesson and their knowledge of social studies
