They can create their own timeline, using the PBS one as their resource. They can also answer a DBQ based on the primary and secondary sources provided on the website. They can also make a cause/effect chart using the information provided. ]]> 2018-12-10 23:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/313211684 PBS https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/313211893 Utilizing the resources on PBS's site, students can create a 'one-pager' on either the Mexican American War, and/or on The Annexation of TX. Within the one-pager, I can create a list of requirements (8-10, plus an illustration) for students to research and include on their one pager. ]]> 2018-12-10 23:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/313211893 Republic of Texas: https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/315228903 1) Use and link as a comparative topic to the US struggle for independence. 2) Link to the Haiti struggle for independence.

2) Explain how Texas Statehood was a continuation of the need to identify as a nation and build community.]]> 2018-12-17 16:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/315229894 I found an amazing podcast called http://wiseabouttexas.com/ I plan on having my students listen to Episode 7 and writing a short summary. https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/317263258 2019-01-03 16:31:36 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/317263258 PBS https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/319971222 Like the idea of using the interactive timeline to create their own timeline to use along side a story board. Quick facts and ideas to help introduce them to larger and more in depth activities. I also want to use Mex/US/Tex constitutions for compare contrast exercise paired with student/socratic discussion. - How they were different/same? Where might similarities come from... ]]> 2019-01-12 18:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/319971222 Like the idea of using varying political opinions on PBS tools to create political cartoons. One goal is helping further their writing skills. Would use primary docs/DBQ to help set up writing exercises. https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/319971992 2019-01-12 18:43:03 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/319971992 PBS https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/327125518 I would like to create a digital timeline and have them explore digital resources.]]> 2019-02-03 23:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/327125518 Presidential Report Cards https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/327125656 I like the idea of having them rank and assign value to the choices of the presidents of Texas. I especially like having them give a short justification for their grade.]]> 2019-02-03 23:23:25 UTC https://padlet.com/david_levee/y05g2uabaddz/wish/327125656
