Civilizations Simulation
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Recognizing specific phases a civilization grows through is important to the understanding students have of all civilizations studied in WHI in general. Using individual pieces of historical ‘code’ describing different points in the life of a permanent civilization, students will analyze and correctly place the ‘code’ according to time, creating a Civilization Simulation. Check for understanding will occur in review of the order students placed and classroom discussion of why some events occur earlier in a civilization’s progression while others happen later. As a secondary step, students will receive further lines of ‘code.’ Students will need to analyze, adapt, and integrate the new ‘code’ into their existing civilization to create an extended Civilization Simulation.

Color of Freedom - And Still They Served: Black Servicewomen in World War II

Rating
0.0 stars

This program examines the critical roles that Black servicewomen played in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War II. Nearly 9,000 African American women served throughout the United States and in England under racially segregated and discriminatory conditions. Black servicewomen trained in all-Black units and were permitted only to compose a certain enlistment quota. They served largely in support roles and in positions of menial and manual labor. They were barred from the same advancement opportunities given to white women and almost entirely prohibited from serving overseas. And still, they served. Moreover, in their support of achieving Allied victory in 1945, Black women realized a link between promoting civil rights for African Americans in the Armed Forces and on the home front.

Rating

Fourth grade students are learning about the five geographic regions of Virginia and their characteristics. These comprehension “mix-ups” are a great way to monitor students’ understanding of the content along with checking reading comprehension.

Inform students that as they read the paragraphs, there is ONE word in each paragraph that is a “mix-up” (it is incorrect).

Teachers can choose to do these multiple ways in their classroom:
Whole group - teacher reads aloud the paragraph and students find the “mix-up”
Small group - the teacher works with a small group of students, modeling fluent reading and finding the mix-up
Students work in partners
