LBJ's Great Society: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
The Great Society program was a set of domestic policies and initiatives introduced by President Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1960s. It aimed to address various social issues and create a more equitable society in the United States. The Great Society encompassed a wide range of programs and legislation focused on areas such as civil rights, poverty alleviation, education, healthcare, and urban renewal. The Great Society program had a significant impact on American society, particularly in terms of civil rights, poverty reduction, and access to education and healthcare. However, its implementation faced challenges, and its long-term effects have been the subject of ongoing debate and evaluation. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). These notes begin by giving students an overview into the events that led to LBJ's presidency. The notes then broadly categorize the two major goals of The Great Society and provide four legislative achievements for each one. This graphic organizer will work great as an introduction to the Great Society! Comes with a student fill-in-the-blanks sheet. Ready to use! Thumbnail clipart credit: By PrincePadania

Truman and the Dropping of the Atomic Bomb: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
Harry S. Truman, the 33rd President of the United States, played a pivotal role in the development and use of atomic bombs during World War II. Truman assumed the presidency on April 12, 1945, following the death of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. At that time, the Manhattan Project , a secret research program focused on developing atomic weapons, was already underway. As President, Truman was faced with a difficult decision regarding the use of atomic bombs against Japan. The Manhattan Project had successfully created two atomic bombs, and Truman had to decide whether to deploy them as a means to end the war. After the war, Truman focused on preventing the spread of nuclear weapons. He supported the creation of the United Nations and played a key role in establishing the Baruch Plan, which proposed international control of atomic energy to prevent further proliferation. Truman's decision to use atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki remains one of the most consequential actions of his presidency. It ushered in the nuclear age, shaped the course of history, and sparked ongoing discussions about the use and ethics of atomic weapons. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). This graphic organizer gives students two primary source quotes regarding Truman's use of the bomb. The notes then explain some pro/con arguments about the use of the bomb. Lastly, the notes give students a chance to look at the six immediate effects of the bomb. Comes with a fill-in-the-blank version. Clipart Credit: By PrincePadania

Marbury v. Madison 1803: Case Brief
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Government, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
Marbury v. Madison was a landmark case in United States Supreme Court history, decided in 1803. It established the principle of judicial review, which is the power of the federal courts to declare a law or government action unconstitutional. The case arose when William Marbury, a Federalist, sued Secretary of State James Madison for not delivering his commission as a justice of the peace. Marbury argued that the Judiciary Act of 1789 gave the Supreme Court the power to issue writs of mandamus compelling executive officials to perform their duties, and that he was entitled to such a writ. However, Chief Justice John Marshall ruled that the Judiciary Act of 1789 was unconstitutional, because it attempted to give the Supreme Court powers that were not granted to it by the Constitution. Marshall reasoned that the Constitution established a system of checks and balances between the three branches of government, and that the power of judicial review was inherent in the Constitution. Marshall's ruling established the principle of judicial review, which has since become a fundamental principle of American constitutional law. The ruling also strengthened the power of the federal judiciary relative to the other branches of government, and established the Supreme Court as the final arbiter of the Constitution. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). These teacher-created notes will help your students grasp the major impact of the Marbury v. Madison 1803 case. These notes come with a student version and a completed teacher version. These notes work well as a supplement to class readings! Product clipart credit: byPrince Padania

Introduction to FDR's New Deal: Reading & Processing Activity
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
During the 1930s, the United States was facing a lot of problems. Many people were out of work and didn't have enough money to take care of their families. The country was in a very difficult time called the Great Depression. To help the country recover, President Franklin D. Roosevelt came up with a plan called the New Deal. The New Deal had a lot of different parts, but the main idea was to create jobs and help people who were struggling. One of the ways the New Deal created jobs was by starting programs that hired people to do important work, like building roads and bridges. The New Deal also helped farmers by giving them money and tools to improve their farms. The New Deal also created programs to help people who were having a hard time. One program was called Social Security, which gave money to people who were retired or couldn't work because of an injury or disability. Another program was called the Civilian Conservation Corps, which helped young men get jobs and learn new skills. Overall, the New Deal was a plan to help the country recover from a very difficult time. It created jobs, helped people who were struggling, and set up programs that are still helping Americans today. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). This product comes with an introductory reading into FDR's New Deal. The product then has students process the three R's: Relief, Recovery, and Reform (comes with an example). Ready to use.

Brown v. Board of Education 1954: Case Brief
Social Studies, Government, History, History: USA, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
Brown v. Board of Education is a landmark United States Supreme Court case that was decided in 1954. The case involved the issue of racial segregation in public schools and had a profound impact on the civil rights movement. The case originated from several lawsuits filed by African American families challenging the segregation of public schools based on race. At the time, racial segregation was widespread in many areas of the United States, and public schools were often segregated, with African American students attending separate schools that were unequal in terms of resources and quality of education. In Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that segregation in public schools violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause, which guarantees equal treatment under the law. The Court concluded that separate educational facilities for white and African American students were inherently unequal and that racial segregation in public education had a detrimental impact on African American children, damaging their self-esteem and denying them equal educational opportunities. The decision in Brown v. Board of Education overturned the "separate but equal" doctrine established in the 1896 case Plessy v. Ferguson, which had allowed for racial segregation as long as the separate facilities were equal in quality. The Brown decision declared that separate educational facilities were inherently unequal and ordered the desegregation of public schools. However, the implementation of the Brown decision faced significant resistance in many printables /parts-of-and-anatomy-of">parts of the country. Some states and localities resisted desegregation efforts, leading to years of legal battles and social upheaval. It wasn't until years later, through further court rulings, federal legislation, and the efforts of civil rights activists, that significant progress was made in desegregating schools and advancing equal educational opportunities for all students. Overall, Brown v. Board of Education was a pivotal case in the civil rights movement, challenging the legal foundation of segregation and setting the stage for subsequent efforts to end racial discrimination in various aspects of American society. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). These teacher-created notes will help your students grasp the major impact of the Brown v. Board of Education 1954 case. These notes come with a student version and a completed teacher version.

The Great Awakening: Reading and Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
The First Great Awakening was a religious revival movement that occurred in the American colonies in the 18th century, particularly between the 1730s and 1740s. It marked a significant shift in the religious landscape of the time and had a profound impact on American society, culture, and politics. The First Great Awakening emerged as a response to the growing secularism, complacency, and spiritual apathy that had developed within the established Protestant churches. It sought to reignite religious fervor and bring individuals to a more personal and heartfelt relationship with God. The First Great Awakening had several significant consequences. It led to the growth and diversification of Protestant denominations, as new churches and sects emerged, challenging the authority of established churches. The revival also fostered a greater emphasis on individualism, as people were encouraged to seek their own personal relationship with God, rather than relying solely on religious institutions. Furthermore, the First Great Awakening played a role in shaping American identity and promoting the ideals of religious freedom and personal liberty. It inspired a sense of unity among diverse groups of colonists, as people from different social and economic backgrounds came together in religious gatherings. This shared experience helped lay the groundwork for a common American identity and contributed to the development of democratic ideals in the colonies. Students begin by reading about the causes and effects of the Great Awakening. The students are introduced to the two major preachers: Jonathan Edwards and George Whitfield. Then, the students complete a graphic overview of the Great Awakening (included). Lastly, students answer two "Big Questions." Ready to print and use! Works great with the interactive notebook!

J. Robert Oppenheimer: Graphic Organizer

This J. Robert Oppenheimer: Graphic Organizer resource is focused on J. Robert Oppenheimer, a pivotal figure in 20th-century science and the development of the atomic bomb. Julius Robert Oppenheimer was not only an exceptional physicist but also a key player in shaping the course of history during World War II through his involvement with the Manhattan Project. Born in New York City in 1904, Oppenheimer's early years were marked by outstanding academic achievements. He pursued studies at esteemed institutions such as Harvard University and later secured his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Göttingen, Germany. His contributions spanned various facets of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. However, his paramount influence emerged during the turbulent years of World War II. In 1942, Oppenheimer assumed the role of scientific director for the Manhattan Project, an initiative that bore heavy consequences with the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. His expertise and leadership were invaluable to the project's culmination. Post-war, Oppenheimer's journey continued in both academic circles and governmental sectors. He chaired the General Advisory Committee of the United States Atomic Energy Commission, advocating for judicious control over atomic energy. Regrettably, the McCarthy-era cast shadows over his accomplishments, leading to the revocation of his security clearance in 1954, a decision that was later revised, albeit not entirely overturned. Oppenheimer's passing in 1967 left behind a legacy characterized by brilliance, innovation, and moments of controversy. To aid in bringing this influential figure's narrative to our students, I've prepared a c omprehensive overview of Oppenheimer's life , both preceding and following the Manhattan Project. This resource is complemented by 10 reading comprehension questions, alongside a detailed teacher key , ensuring a holistic teaching experience. It's formatted to be effortlessly integrated into our curriculum. Product Clipart: Prince Padania

Cold War Overview: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: Europe, History: World, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
The Cold War was a time of tension and rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union that lasted from the end of World War II in 1945 until 1991. The two superpowers never fought a direct war against each other, but they were involved in many proxy wars, such as the Korean War and the Vietnam War. The Cold War started because the United States and the Soviet Union had different ideas about how countries should be run. The United States believed in democracy, where the people elect their leaders and have individual freedoms. The Soviet Union believed in communism, where the government controls everything and everyone is equal. The United States and the Soviet Union both wanted to spread their ideas and influence around the world, which led to a lot of tension between them. They also built up huge military forces, including nuclear weapons, to try to scare each other into backing down. The most dangerous time during the Cold War was in 1962, during the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Soviet Union had secretly put nuclear missiles in Cuba, which is very close to the United States. The United States demanded that the missiles be removed, and there was a tense standoff between the two superpowers. Eventually, the Soviet Union agreed to remove the missiles, and the crisis was over. The Cold War ended in 1991 when the Soviet Union collapsed. The United States emerged as the world's only superpower, and there was a lot of hope for peace and cooperation between countries. While there are still tensions between countries today, the world is much more peaceful than it was during the Cold War. Teacher-prepared notes show students what is important and how ideas relate, and offer a model for how students should take notes themselves (Marzano et al., 2001). These teacher-created notes will help your students grasp the major events of the Cold War era. These notes work well as a supplement to class readings!

Teaching about the monumental moments in history isn't just part of our job—it's a calling. One of those watershed moments, without a doubt, is the 9/11 attacks of 2001. Orchestrated by al-Qaeda, this day didn't just change the skyline of New York; it changed the fabric of the United States and shifted its trajectory on the global front. While many of us can still feel the weight of the smoke-filled air as we watched the World Trade Center towers fall, or the heartbreak hearing the tales of heroism from Flight 93, we must recognize that for a good number of our students, this day is a story from before their time. Our challenge—and indeed, our responsibility—is to bridge that gap, making the stories of that day both tangible and understandable. One way to navigate this is with clear, structured notes . Think of it as connecting the dots: breaking down complex events and pairing them with firsthand accounts, like President George W. Bush's immediate reactions, helps paint a fuller picture for our students. In our shared goal to enlighten and inform, I've put together a resource that walks through 9/11. For us educators, there's a comprehensive version, and for our students, an interactive one designed to pique their curiosity and encourage active participation. Ready to use, these tools are designed to make our task a tad easier while ensuring our students gain a thorough understanding. By weaving this resource into our lessons, we're taking our students by the hand and guiding them through one of the most consequential days in recent history. It's so vital they grasp the magnitude and nuances of such events, and I truly think this tool will be a cornerstone in that effort. This product comes with a completed teacher version and a fill-in-the-blanks version . Ready to print and ready to use. Great format to help students learn.
