These WWII in HD Episode 9 Worksheets include 63 questions divided into various worksheets to help your students closely track information and pay full attention, even as you're better able to hold them accountable for their viewing and learning! DIFFERENTIATED LEARNING With this WWII in HD Worksheet packet, all the work that goes into differentiating material is already done for you.

60 Multiple Choice Questions to accompany Episode10 of Mankind: The Story of All of Us Mankind: The Story of All of Us is a History Channel series that uses engaging imagery, powerful special effects, and a lively script to convey the story of the humanity in 12 concise yet comprehensive episodes. This teaching packet covers Episode 10: “Revolutions," which develops several major themes: • Democracy and the American Revolution • The Industrial Revolution • British Imperialism in China • The Opium Wars • The U.S. Civil War • Disease as a historical force • Industrialized warfare Using any of the series’ episodes in class opens up several useful possibilities. They are so well presented that they are easily understood by students. This in turn means that episodes can actually be used as an introduction to a topic or a unit. On the other hand, they also make excellent reinforcers, so some teachers will want to show the episodes after the end of a chapter or unit for use as a review or recap. ABOUT THIS TEACHING PACKET I’ve kept this episode versatility in mind when making these materials. This teaching resource contains both a worksheet and a test on the episode it covers. These two components are based on different approaches to the video: • The student viewing worksheet has 50 multiple choice questions, all presented in video order. These questions are fairly detailed. Certainly, many students will have good enough recall to be able to complete the worksheet after the episode has been shown, but because of the detailed nature of the questions, some teachers may want to use the worksheet as a “during-viewing” activity that will help students track information and stay on task . • The 10-question test, on the other hand, is designed to help students synthesize the episode’s information and see larger patterns that span different sections of it. My intent when writing the test was to focus solely on the “big issues” that arise from the targeted time span of world history. Students who have paid attention to the video should definitely have mastered these basic, fundamental issues from the targeted time period. All test questions are also multiple choice. • A fast-grade answer key is provided for both the worksheet and the quiz. DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION POSSIBILITIES Because the worksheet and test take these different approaches, teachers can also use them to differentiate instruction. Since the test is much shorter and covers much more basic information, it can serve as a “basic” level viewing worksheet should teachers desire. The regular worksheet, in contrast, can double as an “advanced” viewing activity.

18 True/False problems that serve as a complete review of the basics about Karl Marx and his theory of radical socialism. Plus, a coordinating "fix-it" worksheet that takes students back through those same basics a second time! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How to Use These Karl Marx Review Worksheets ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This teaching packet is best used after students have some basic acquaintance with Karl Marx and his theory of radical socialism. Therefore --- 1) First, use your world history textbook or a video about Karl Marx to introduce students to the topic. In my teaching sequence, I usually start in on this right after we’ve covered the First Industrial Revolution and its impact on the people of Europe and especially England. This allows me to place Karl Marx’s ideas into a logical context – as a reaction to the dark side of industrialization. 2) The next time you see your students, tell them that they are going to do some review problems on Karl Marx. Proceed through the True/False worksheet, either passing it out for students to write on, or reading problems out loud while they record answers on their own paper. 3) Make reviewing the answers a learning activity by going through them as a class. See how long it takes students to realize that all 18 statements on the worksheet are true! Discuss each item with the class to help them remember better. Alternately, follow the “reward game” procedure detailed on the True/False Answer Key Page. 4) Use the rest of the class period to do follow-up Karl Marx activities. Perhaps a primary source reading, another kind of supplemental reading, or a short video about Karl Marx. One of my favorites is “Manifestoon,” available for free on YouTube. This 12-minute video consists of a voice reading the verbatim text of the Communist Manifesto while vintage cartoons illustrating the concepts play. You can find “Manifestoon” at the following web address: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbTIJ9_bLP4 5) On the next school day, announce that today there is going to be a quiz to see how much they learned from the True/False review. Or describe it as a quiz to see who was paying attention during the review! 6) Pass out the Fix-it Worksheet and provide students with time to work. 7) Either collect papers and correct them using the provided key, or go through the answers out loud with the class while students correct their own or a classmate’s paper. In some cases, students may come up with valid solutions that differ from the answer key, since there is more than one way to transform some of the error-laden problems into true statements. Happy teaching, Elise Parker

TEACH THANKSGIVING WITH HUMOR USING CRASH COURSE! Few classroom strategies are as successful as this simple approach: make learning fun! That, or course, is easier said than done, but when it comes to teaching the history behind our modern Thanksgiving holiday, the YouTube series Crash Course U.S. History is a great place to start since it devotes an entire episode just to Thanksgiving! The Thanksgiving episode of Crash Course contains about 12 minutes of content and is available to stream for free at the following link: Timestamps or No Timestamps? This packet will provide you with three resources to help you use the Thanksgiving episode with your classes: • A student worksheet without timestamps • A student worksheet with timestamps showing at which point in the video the needed information is presented • A full context answer key. This contains the student questions, the answer (sometimes annotated with additional information), and the timestamps for each question. About These Thanksgiving Video Worksheets For the Thanksgiving episode, the worksheet contains 24 True/False problems for them to solve as student watch. All questions are presented in video order so that students can easily follow along, but these worksheets are not mere outlines that merely ask students to generate their own notes. Instead, they focus in on certain key issues that students watching the videos should master in order to have a clear and concise understanding of the topic under study. Ideas for Using this Crash Course Thanksgiving Worksheet Only a teacher knows what constitutes best use for a particular class, but I always find it helpful to see what creative approaches other teachers are using. Here are some good options for these worksheets. • Standard use: Print off copies and have students complete them as they watch the video. Or send the copies electronically so students can complete them on tablet/laptop devices, if that is an option in your setting. Go over answers out loud if time permits (great for discussing/debriefing the video content) or collect papers to grade them more formally. • Accommodate students who claim that the worksheets "go too fast:" Assign students to do only the evens or only the odds. After watching the video, pair students up to discuss and fill in missing answers. • Create basic and advanced levels from the same worksheet: This is easily done by declaring that the "basic" level is odds-only (or evens-only) while the "advanced" level consists of all the questions.
