________________________ What Buyers Are Saying: ---Really helpful! ________________________ ABOUT THE MOVIE The movie "1776" is great for teaching about the American Revolution and specifically the Declaration of Independence. Students usually find it to be unlike any movie they've seen before, since the vast majority of them haven't seen any live-action musicals, and certainly not ones stuffed with thrilling political debates and clever parliamentary procedure! 1776 MOVIE WORKSHEETS HELP MANAGE CLASS TIME These worksheets are designed to be used batch by batch as students finish watching portions of the movie -- or they can be used after the whole movie has been watched, as a final assessment. Either way, it helps students to pay better attention when they know they'll be held accountable for doing just that. WORKSHEET ORGANIZATION There are worksheets for the beginning, middle, and ending phases of the movie. The first two worksheet sets are formatted so that True/False and Multiple Choice questions appear on different pages, allowing teachers to use one question type during viewing and the other afterwards as a quiz, if they like. Lots of options! Happy teaching! Movie Worksheets by Elise Parker keywords: John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, slavery debates, Independence Hall, King George III, John Hancock, George Washington, Revolutionary War, Continental Army

These War Games Worksheets provide teachers with a comprehensive set of questions, all in movie order, covering the 1983 movie War Games starring Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. WAR GAMES MOVIE WORKSHEETS HELP STUDENTS SEE THE COLD WAR FROM A TEEN PERSPECTIVE! This movie is great for U.S. History classes because it captures the mood of the nation in the early 1980s. Fear of nuclear war was rampant -- so much so that there was a nuclear freeze / unilateral disarmament movement gaining ground. Even though the movie plot is fiction, it is useful because it is a genuine product of the fears in play at that time. It also depicts the beginnings of the computer-based technological culture that we live in today and weaves in 1980s cultural strands about computer hacking and video gaming, both trends which have continued to this day but which began in force in the early 1980s. I usually show this movie to my classes after state testing has been completed and we have time for things that are still historical, but are also very fun. Students love this movie and watch it with rapt attention. With this question set, you can give them something to do during the movie or you can assess them afterwards as a closing assessment. Teacher convenience is a hallmark of my products! To give teacher maximum options, the question sets are provided both in movie order and in scrambled order. Teachers that like to have their students use worksheets during a movie to follow along will probably like the former. The latter might be best for teachers that want to have students review concepts after the movie -- or a specific section of it -- has been viewed in its entirety. A Lesson Plan That Can Last At Least Three Days The question set is split into three sections which more-or-less coordinate with showing the movie over three class periods. This lets teachers stop and "debrief" movie/history elements with their classes before moving on. How These War Games Worksheets Offer Maximum Flexibility Because teachers have different needs when it comes to materials, several different formats are provided: ---Examview .tst so you can print tests out or use them with CPS/Examview electronic testing systems ---Examview .bnk so you can combine the various question banks in any way you please to make your own tests (For example, combine all files to make a master test for the whole movie). ---rtf Microsoft Word and other word processors can open these files. The rtf files are perfect for making worksheets or adding other enhancements to the files. There are 78 Questions in all -- 39 True/False Questions and 39 Multiple Choice Questions!

Keep students on-task and engaged with this set of easy-to-use packet of Tuskegee Airmen Worksheets! -- These Are Fully Editable files for Teacher Customization! The worksheets provided here are designed to be used by students as they watch the video. Students will pay better attention and will focus in on important details as they solve the problems included in the activity. Structure of worksheet: Key statements from the film's script are included on a worksheet, with important words or phrases blocked out. Students are to fill in the missing words or phrases as they watch the film. I have used these worksheets with my classes and have found them to be highly successful at helping students notice things that are politically/historically/culturally significant about the WWII era. The worksheets are two pages long each and have 29 cloze (fill-in-the-blank) problems to be solved while students watch the film. I BELIEVE IN TEACHER CONVENIENCE Therefore, I have organized student materials in four ways so that you have a variety of options when using these Tuskegee Airmen movie worksheets in class: 1) Re-usable Student Worksheets. Make one class set and use it with multiple groups over multiple years. Save on paper, ink, and the hassle of making printouts. Answer blanks on this set are noted with the characters: ---. This is on purpose so that students do not feel they have a "blank" to write on. --- is too short to be of much use and the position of the hyphens would block their writing in any case. 2) Re-usable worksheets as above, but with timestamps included on each problem. These show students how far into the movie each key statement occurs. Depending on your class needs, you might want them to see the timestamps or not. 3) Consumable Student Worksheets. 4) Consumable worksheets with timestamps. TEACHER MATERIALS INCLUDED IN THESE TUSKEGEE AIRMEN WORKSHEETS Two complete answer keys are included. 1) A contextual answer key provides the answers along with the full text of the key statement students used. This will aid the teacher in class discussions of the material. This key also includes timestamps so that you can quickly find the material in the movie, should you choose. 2) A linear list of answers that will make correcting student work much easier if you choose to have students write on their own

160 Questions -- a comprehensive assessment -- of the 3-hour movie Hitler: The Rise of Evil. Students will pay better attention to the movie when they know they will be tested on it after viewing. Alternately, these questions are set up so that you can use them as during-viewing worksheets if you prefer. Teacher convenience is a hallmark of my products. With that in mind, there are detailed annotations on many "false" answers and some "true" answers -- the better to assist you in going over the questions / conducting class discussions. What These Hitler the Rise of Evil Worksheets Include To make using the worksheets very easy, the questions are divided into four files that cover different phases of the movie. This will allow you to show the movie over several class periods and assess students as you go along. * 68 Questions (38 True/False and 30 Multiple Choice) cover the first 56 minutes. * 38 Questions (23 True/False and 15 Multiple Choice) cover from 52:00 to 1:47:00 of the film. * 27 Questions (15 True/False and 12 Multiple Choice) cover from 1:47:00 to 2:25:00 * 27 Questions (18 True/False and 9 Multiple Choice) cover from 2:25:00 to the end of the film. There are 160 questions in all. That means that you have plenty to choose from if you would prefer to administer your students shorter tests, or if you would like to make several versions of tests. Another convenience feature for you is a variety of different formats: You will receive an Examview testbank .bnk file, an Examview test .tst file, and an .rtf file that you can open in a word processing program. Thus you will find it easy to print out worksheets if you wish, or use the files electronically with Examview or CPS if that suits your teaching style better. The .bnk files can be combined together in any combination if you wish to make longer tests, for example, a master test covering the entire movie. However you choose to use the questions, you shouldn't be in the position of having to re-type them! These questions are perfect for assessing how well students paid attention to the movie, and they can also be used as a springboard to preview important points in the movie or to discuss it with the class afterwards. You can have students take notes during the movie and use them with these questions afterwards, or require them to do the questions from memory only.

Liven up your government teaching with this guided Constitution worksheet that takes students through the details of Article I, all about the legislative branch. These worksheets let students really get into the primary source text instead of relying on textbook authors to tell them what the Constitution says about Congress -- and because it is a complete look at Article I, it covers a lot of ground that textbooks tend to overlook. Give your students a really complete view of the rights, roles, and responsibilities of Congress! I BELIEVE IN CRITICAL THINKING The worksheet is more than a reading comprehension activity. At key points, it asks students the critical "why?" questions that are so essential to true understanding. To complete the worksheet, students will have to do a close reading of Article I to discover key details, but then they will have to apply critical thinking skills to figure out what reasons the Framers probably had in mind for including certain provisions regarding the legislative branch. For example, the Constitution specifies that Congress members can't be held to answer in a court of law for anything they say while in Congress. No reason for this prohibition is given, but of course there is a very good one. Students are challenged to think for themselves as to why it was a good idea to make sure that Congress members feel free to speak their minds without worrying about being sued for their remarks. And this is just the tip of the iceberg -- these worksheets are about clear reading and careful analysis, always providing the guidance that students need to get at the heart of these important matters. Students are also challenged to think through what some of the somewhat advanced vocabulary used in Article I must mean. What are "habeas corpus" and "duty of tonnage?" The Constitution uses the terms without explanation; with this worksheet, students are asked to go beyond the surface level of the text to reach a level of true understanding. TEACHER CONVENIENCE IS NUMBER ONE WITH ME! As a teacher myself, I know that you have plenty to do. You need support materials that make your life easier, not harder. When it comes to this Article I Constitution Worksheet, that means: ---Two different difficulty levels provided, ready made for you to differentiate instruction. ---Convenient division into sections that match the Constitution to make printing easy! ---A reusable option -- all problems presented not only in worksheet format, but also as a question list. A class set of these can be reused from year to year since students won't write on the pages. ---A full answer key is provided as well as helpful ancillary information!

_______________________________________ What Buyers Are Saying: ---Lots of questions to choose from! ---Saved me hours of work! ---Thanks it really helped! ______________________________________ A GREAT MOVIE FOR U.S. HISTORY! "A More Perfect Union" portrays the 1787 Constitutional Convention in detail. These More Perfect Union Quiz Questions, split into three separate files for ease of use, will allow you to assess students' attention and understanding of major concepts presented in the film. If you're like me, you've downloaded the official Teacher's Guide that goes with this movie. It wasn't adequate for my needs. It had only a few questions and some of them couldn't be answered from the movie content. So I created my own assessments for the movie! My questions are designed to be used batch by batch as students finish watching portions of the movie -- or they can be used after the whole movie has been watched, as a final assessment. I find that students are MUCH more attentive and on-task during a class movie if they know they will be assessed afterward on the main ideas and important details in the film. ABOUT THIS A MORE PERFECT UNION RESOURCE Since teacher convenience is very important to me, and I assume to you, I've provided all the questions in three different formats to match various teaching styles and types of technology. You'll get .rtf word processing files of all questions, as well as .tst and .bnk files for use with Examview or CPS software. The total download contains 105 questions, split up into files that match the beginning, middle, and ending phases of the movie. Full answer keys are, of course, provided. A PDF easy-print version of this resource is also available here on TES.

A set of 10 exercises to help students get a solid foundation in Spanish verb meanings and conjugations. INTEGRATE WORD MEANINGS WITH GRAMMAR TO PROMOTE TRUE COMPREHENSION INSTEAD OF ROTE LEARNING When students are practicing conjugations, they should at the same time be acquiring the MEANING of the words they are using. What sense does it make to have them write charts of lavo, lavas, lava, etc, when they don't know what the words MEAN? My exercises are designed to constantly reinforce the meaning of the conjugated forms. As students advance through the exercises they will master increasing numbers of word meanings, and all the while, they have been acquiring the target conjugations as well. TARGET SPECIFIC TROUBLE AREAS THAT LEARNERS STRUGGLE WITH No matter what textbook I used, the book always took for granted that students would understand when to use the nosotros versus the ellos/Uds. forms. You probably know that students have HUGE difficulty in figuring out which form is needed in any given plural situation. Sure, they'll use the ellos form when the sentence says "ellos," and they can handle a simple nosotros, too, but what about when the sentence says "Marta y Luis," or "Maria y yo," or "Los profesores y Ud.?" Sentences like that would absolutely baffle my students until we started doing massive practice sets on how to know when you need a nosotros versus an ellos/ellas/Uds. form. But these exercises take care of that for you! I built them that way from the start so that students would have tons of practice in recognizing real-life subjects -- which as we know, do not always consist of the pure subject pronouns. FOCUS ON COMMONLY CONFUSED VERBS I identify problem verbs from the start, and provide practice specifically targeted to them. Problem verbs are the ones that students consistently mix up when they are trying to communicate. In this set, lavar and llevar are problem verbs. Students use llevar when they mean lavar, and vice-versa. An exercise of nothing but distinguishing lavar and llevar takes care of the problem. Students reach mastery and gain confidence with my exercises! THE NITTY-GRITTY: HOW THESE SPANISH INTERACTIVE EXERCISES WORK All exercises are computer based and designed to run in any web browser. All you have to do (as explained in the included Read Me file) is copy the exercise set to a computer's hard drive and double click on the START HERE file. To have your whole class use the exercises at once, load them onto your local area network.

A large set of reading comprehension quizzes covering assorted stories commonly used in World Literature courses. Many of the matching stories are public domain / available online! You might want to assign these stories as core readings, or use them as extra credit or as the backbone of a summer school curriculum. Either way, the assessment piece is taken care of for you. Teacher convenience is a hallmark of my products. Therefore, each quiz is included as a Microsoft Word file that you can edit if you wish, or print out as is to distribute. This would be the primary format educators find useful. However, for those of you who are accustomed to electronic testing, I also provide Examview .tst and .eot files, along with helpful notes included with the download for more information. Most of the quizzes have 10 questions and begin with a question or two about the author's life and/or writing style. A couple of quizzes are based on very short works of literature and so have only 5 questions. All questions are multiple choice. Quizzes included in this download cover the following stories: "A Country Doctor" by Franz Kafka "A Drink in the Passage" by Alan Paton "A Sunrise on the Veld" by Doris Lessing "A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" by Gabriel García Márquez "An Outpost of Progress" by Joseph Conrad "Araby" by James Joyce "Downtown" by Fumiko Hayashi "Goblin Market" by Christina Rossetti "Good Climate, Friendly Inhabibitants" by Nadine Gordimer "How Much Land Does a Man Need?" by Leo Tolstoy "In a Grove" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa "Lament for Ignacio Sánchez Mejías" by Federico García Lorca "Marriage is a Private Affair" by Chinua Achere "Mista Courifer" by Adelaide Casely-Hayford "One Soldier" by Katai Tayama "The Black Cat" by Edgar Allen Poe "The Damask Drum" by Motokiyo Zeami "The Doctor's Divorce" by S.Y.

________________________ What Buyers Are Saying: ---Really helpful! ________________________ The movie "1776" is great for teaching about the American Revolution and specifically the Declaration of Independence. These questions are designed to be used batch by batch as students finish watching portions of the movie -- or they can be used after the whole movie has been watched, as a final assessment. I find that students are MUCH more attentive and on-task during a class movie if they know they will be assessed afterwards on the main ideas and important details in the film. ABOUT THESE 1776 MOVIE QUESTIONS These questions are in Examview format. If you need printable worksheets, skip to the bottom of the listing for a link to them. Examview TestBanks are compatible with Examview software and many online learning management systems such as Edmodo and Schoology. They also work with Insight 360 and CPS software, both of which are used with handheld "clickers." This set is made up of three time-stamped files so that you can assess students on the beginning, middle, and ending phases of the movie. In all, you will have more than 50 questions -- a mix of True/False and Multiple Choice. KEY IDEAS AND PEOPLE COVERED 1776 • Thomas Jefferson • Benjamin Franklin • John Adams • Abigail Adams • Philadelphia as the capital city • Independence Hall • The Liberty Bell • The Declaration of Independence • The Debate over Slavery • Loyalists • British tax policy • The proper role of representative government • Boston as a site of colonial discontent • And much more!

Quick and Easy Simulation to Provide Your Students with a Clear Understanding of Both Procedural Due Process and Substantive Due Process of Law! No materials needed! This Due Process of Law Activity includes: • Introductory explanations to assist teacher • Detailed step-by-step procedure to do the simulation in class • Alternatives for use with students who might find elements of the simulation disturbing • Fundamental Rights worksheet • Fundamental Rights worksheet answer key MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS DUE PROCESS OF LAW TEACHING RESOURCE: Each year as my classes read through the U.S. Constitution, we encounter the phrase “due process of law” in both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Defining due process is pretty simple: the government has to follow its own rules when depriving someone of their life, liberty, or property -- the justice system is not allowed to "make up" new rules that apply just to a particular individual. Due Process: A Better Definition But that definition, of course, only provides a surface understanding of due process. In fact, it leaves out half the story since it only deals with what legal experts call "procedural" due process. That's the easy to understand kind of due process, but it's not the only kind. There's also "substantive" due process, which in my experience has been a lot harder for students to grasp, since it builds on an understanding of fundamental civil rights. Don't Put the Cart Before the Horse! Really, though, you can communicate the concept of what substantive due process is without getting into the minutiae of fundamental rights -- and that's how I like to start. It's really easy, too, building on students' own experiences! Even better, this quick and easy due process simulation actually gets students to comprehend the basic nature of both procedural and substantive due process! If you teach government, civics, law, or related subjects, then this due process of law worksheet and simulation resource will help your students master procedural vs. substantive due process like never before!

What was the view of Jews in the United States during the 1930s as the Holocaust loomed ominously ahead? What did the United States try to do to lessen the scale of the horrific tragedy . . . and what more could the nation have done? Take your Holocaust teaching to the next level by examining what the U.S. government knew about events unfolding in Europe, and what it did in response.

For a short time, the US had an opportunity to open its doors, but instead erected a "paper wall," a bureaucratic maze that prevented all but a few Jewish refugees from entering the country. It was not until 1944, that a small band of Treasury Department employees forced the government to respond." WHERE TO FIND THE VIDEO "America and the Holocaust" plays occasionally on PBS stations as a part of the series American Experience. However, it is also available online at a variety of streaming sites. The best way to find where it may currently be available is to run a simple Google search.

Have students complete the questions as they watch. Alternately, use the multiple choice questions instead. If the class period lasts at least 5 minutes past the 46 needed to show the video, you will even have time to go over the answers before the bell rings. • Option 2: As above, but have students do one of the two question sets during the class period and the alternate question set for homework.

130 Multiple Choice Questions on American Experience Presents -- The Presidents: LBJ! All in video order, conveniently divided into two separate worksheets, one for each of the two hour-long episodes included in the first half of this video series! About American Experience Presents The Presidents: LBJ American Experience Presents The Presidents: LBJ is a comprehensive biography of the 36th President of the United States. The program originally aired on PBS stations throughout the U.S. Lasting about four hours, the video takes students through Lyndon Johnson’s political career including his time as a Congressman and as the majority leader of the U.S. Senate. The program spends the bulk of the four hours, however, focusing in on LBJ’s time as president, first as an “accidental president” who came to power because of the JFK assassination, and then as a president elected in his own right. This exploration of the LBJ administration means that the video does an excellent job of highlighting major events of the 1960s, including in particular the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War. Format of video that goes with these The Presidents LBJ Worksheets The Presidents: LBJ is usually presented in two 2-hour programs, providing a natural break in the historical narrative. Each of the two hour programs is further subdivided into two parts, providing a total of four logical episode divisions. Conveniently for high school teachers, each of these four parts lasts slightly less than an hour, which is about the length of time available in a typical secondary class period. THESE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE LBJ WORKSHEETS COVER THE FIRST TWO HOURS OF THE VIDEO SERIES. Hour One, “Beautiful Texas,” chronicles LBJ’s early years from his early childhood through his rise to the presidency upon the death of John. F. Kennedy. Hour Two, “My Fellow Americans” explores Lyndon Johnson’s administration up until his re-election in 1964. Teacher Convenience Features Included with these American Experience: The Presidents LBJ Worksheets All worksheets include answer blanks in case teachers want students to write directly on them, but there a separate one-page answer sheet matching the format of the answer key is also included!

Spanish is spoken in far more places than just Spain or Mexico, yet most Spanish textbooks hardly ever emphasize the multinational aspect of the language. Enhance your teaching with these fun interactive exercises / computer games which will help students "grasp" the simple concept: Se habla español en muchos paí­ses. Spanish Interactives Mean Automatic Differentiation! The exercises are done on computer and work right inside a web browser! Each exercises consists of a matching drag-and-drop game where students have to pair up Spanish synonyms. Download the preview to see it in action -- the preview has 4 games for you to try out. The full download has 16. With computer-based instruction, all students can be actively engaged at once in the computer lab -- and each one will be working at his or her own pace to achieve mastery. I taught Spanish for 12 years and developed an extensive Spanish-instruction website to help my students. My exercises really led to mastery -- and trust me, the ones in the textbooks I used generally didn't. The solution to passing the AP Exam: Practice, Practice, Practice! Every student I trained for the AP Spanish exam passed it, and exercises like these with fun, intensive practice that leads to mastery, is a big reason for that record of success. These exercises could be used for enrichment/enhancement or you could make them an extra credit activity -- OR, you could incorporate them into your core curriculum in order to give your students a more well-rounded understanding of Spanish as a multinational language.

TARGET SPECIFIC TROUBLE AREAS THAT LEARNERS STRUGGLE WITH No matter what textbook I used, the book always took for granted that students would understand when to use the nosotros versus the ellos/Uds. forms. You probably know that students have HUGE difficulty in figuring out which form is needed in any given plural situation. Sure, they'll use the ellos form when the sentence says "ellos," and they can handle a simple nosotros, too, but what about when the sentence says "Marta y Luis," or "Maria y yo," or "Los profesores y Ud.?" Sentences like that would absolutely baffle my students until we started doing massive practice sets on how to know when you need a nosotros versus an ellos/ellas/Uds. form. But these exercises take care of that for you! I built them that way from the start so that students would have tons of practice in recognizing real-life subjects -- which as we know, do not always consist of the pure subject pronouns. So yes, sometimes the exercises cue them with "Ella," but sometimes they use a name or a title (La alumna) or even a non-person noun when the verb is suitable (El libro...). And when it comes to the plural forms, students will work with complex subjects from the start: Maria Elena y tú, El director y los estudiantes. Tú y yo. Uds. y yo. Juan, Elena, y Teresa. Etc, etc, etc. This exercise set has a special multiple-choice section that requires students to focus on when they would need the nosotros or the ellos forms for complex subjects.

40-problem cloze viewing worksheet, crossword puzzle review designed for differentiated learning, and helpful teaching aids to assist you as you lead your students through a fun and engaging review of U.S. history as told through key Supreme Court cases that clearly show the various eras the nation has experienced! This video activity packet is intended for use with the excellent PBS series The Supreme Court. The series consists of four episodes, each lasting an hour. Through watching all four episodes, students will be explore in chronological order the entire history of the Supreme Court up through the early 21st century. The program first aired on PBS in 2007 but will remain relevant for many, many years to come! What This PBS The Supreme Court Episode 1 Worksheet Packet Includes: • Comprehensive fill-in worksheet with 40 problems: All problems are presented in video order so that students can follow along. Doing the worksheet as they watch requires students to pay close attention to all narration so they can “catch” the next problem coming up. This leads to higher student engagement with the video and more learning! • Student answer sheet: The student worksheet is formatted to discourage students from writing directly on their copies. This way, teachers can make one class set and use it for years, saving them both time and paper! Students can write on their own paper, of course, but using the included answer sheet will facilitate super-fast grading since it will guarantee that student answers “line up” perfectly with the answer key. • Answer key for fast grading: This key perfectly matches the student answer sheet so that teachers can correct 3, 5, or even more papers at once should they choose – just spread them out carefully so all student pages line up with the key, and you’ll be able to correct student work in nothing flat! • Answer key for going over answers with the class: Instead of grading the papers yourself, you can have students grade themselves or each other with this key. Instead of just reading out the right answer, you can make the “correcting phase” a learning/review experience by reading students the whole sentence they were looking at during viewing, pausing when the answer appears to let the class or selected students supply the correct answer. This lets students hear the key sentences again, helping to reinforce key concepts and information! • Teacher reference materials: Included is a list of all the laws and court cases discussed during the episode, as well as a full transcript of the episode’s narration in case you want to quickly review what the program had to say on a particular topic. • Crossword puzzle activity: Differentiated for basic and advanced learners; 28 words & clues!
