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
