3. In connected circles, they write immediate effects, then subsequent effects
4. Each link must include academic vocabulary and transitional phrases
5. Students color-code primary and secondary effects
6. Extension: Students can create branching effects to show multiple outcomes

# data[].attributes.body
Students analyze a historical event from multiple perspectives, developing critical thinking and empathy while using academic language.

Directions:
1. Create a chart with 3-4 columns labeled with different stakeholders/groups from the historical event
2. For each perspective, students complete prompts:
- This group believed...
- Their interests were...
- They were affected by...
- Primary sources from this group show...
3. Students must use evidence and historical vocabulary
4. Bottom section: Students synthesize how different perspectives shaped the event
5. Share in small groups using academic discussion sentence starters

Students compare how a place, concept, or society changed between two or more time periods using a window-pane organizer.

Directions:
1. Create a four-section window pane graphic organizer
2. Label top sections with time periods (e.g., "Early 1800s" and "Late 1800s")
3. In each section, students document aspects like social structure, economy, technology, etc.
4. The bottom section is for analyzing and explaining changes using academic language
5. Students must include cause/effect language and specific historical terms
6. Extension: Add a third window to show another time period

Students break down primary sources using a structured web organizer to develop critical analysis skills and historical thinking.

Directions:
1. Place an image of the primary source or its title in the center of a web
2. Create connected bubbles for: Author/Creator, Time Period, Purpose, Audience, Main Ideas, Bias/Perspective
3. Students complete each section using evidence from the document
4. Require use of academic terms like "according to the document," "this reveals," or "this suggests"
5. Bottom section: Students evaluate the document's historical significance and reliability
6. Use completed webs for structured academic discussions

Students construct historical arguments using a structured claim-evidence-reasoning format, perfect for developing argumentative academic language.

Directions:
1. Provide a historical question or prompt at the top of the organizer
2. Section 1: Students write a clear claim statement
3. Section 2: Students identify at least 3 pieces of evidence from historical sources
4. Section 3: For each piece of evidence, students explain the reasoning that connects it to their claim
5. Section 4: Students address a counterargument
6. Require the use of academic transition terms and content vocabulary
7. Use completed organizers to write paragraphs or prepare for debates

Students collaboratively build understanding of complex historical concepts through a jigsaw activity with visual mapping.

Directions:
1. Divide a large historical concept (e.g., Industrialization, Revolution, etc.) into 4-5 subtopics
2. Assign expert groups to create concept maps for each subtopic using a template
3. Maps must include: key vocabulary, people, events, causes/effects, and visuals
4. Students then form jigsaw groups with one expert from each subtopic
5. Experts teach their section to the group using academic language
6. The final product is a comprehensive class concept map connecting all elements
7. Include sentence frames for explanations and questions
