French Revolution: Complete Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: Europe, History: World, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
The French Revolution was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France from 1789 to 1799. It began with the storming of the Bastille prison in Paris on July 14, 1789, and ended with the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte as Emperor in 1799. The French Revolution was sparked by a combination of economic, social, and political factors. France was facing a financial crisis due to its involvement in the American Revolution and the extravagant spending of King Louis XVI and his queen, Marie Antoinette. Meanwhile, the majority of the French population, particularly the lower classes, were suffering from poverty, starvation, and inequality. The revolution began with the Estates-General, a meeting of representatives from the three social classes in France, which had not been convened since 1614. The Third Estate, which represented the common people, demanded more representation and greater political power. When the king refused, the Third Estate declared itself the National Assembly and began drafting a new constitution. The revolution quickly turned violent, as crowds of angry Parisians stormed the Bastille and other symbols of the monarchy. In August 1789, the National Assembly abolished feudalism and established the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, which asserted the equality of all citizens before the law and guaranteed individual rights such as freedom of speech, press, and religion. The revolution continued with the Reign of Terror, a period of mass executions and political repression led by radical Jacobin leader Maximilien Robespierre. The Reign of Terror was brought to an end with the execution of Robespierre in 1794. In 1795, a new constitution was established, creating a Directory government. However, the Directory was plagued by corruption and instability, leading to the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, who seized power in a coup d'état in 1799. The French Revolution had a profound impact on world history, inspiring political and social revolutions in Europe and beyond. Its legacy includes the spread of revolutionary ideals such as liberty, equality, and fraternity, the emergence of nationalism, and the transformation of Europe's political and social order. 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 helps students understand the underlining causes and effects of the French Revolution. The notes go over The Tennis Court Oath, the Bastille, and The Great Fear. These notes also cover the start and end of the Reign of Terror, and conclude with an overview of the rise and fall of Napoleon. Ready to print and ready to use!

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!

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! Thumbnail and product clipart credit: By PrincePadania and byDandy Doodles This product provides students with an easy-to-understand overview of the major issues, leaders, and events associated with the Cold War.

Ronald Reagan and the Conservative Tide of the 1980s - Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, Economics, History, History: USA, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
"The conservative tide" is a term used to describe the increase in conservative political and social ideologies and policies that have been seen in many countries in recent years. The conservative tide can be seen as a reaction to the liberal or progressive movements that have made gains in areas such as civil rights, social justice, and environmental protection. The conservative tide has been evident in many countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Some examples of the conservative policies that have been implemented include tax cuts for the wealthy, reductions in public services, and a push towards more traditional values and social norms. The conservative tide has been fueled by various factors, such as economic insecurity, cultural anxiety, and a desire for a return to what some see as "traditional" values. Conservative politicians have been successful in mobilizing support by tapping into these concerns and promising to address them through policies that emphasize personal responsibility and free market solutions. However, the conservative tide has also been met with resistance from those who see it as a threat to progress and social justice. The tension between these opposing forces has become a defining feature of modern politics, with debates over issues such as immigration, climate change, and social inequality often at the center of the discourse. 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 looking at the four major goals of the conservative movement during the 1980s. Then, this graphic organizer looks at the causes and effects of the conservative tide that occurred during the 1980s. Comes with a student fill-in-the-blanks sheet. Ready to use!

The Gettysburg Address: Primary Source Analysis
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
In November of 1863, a ceremony was held to dedicate a cemetery in Gettysburg to honor the great battle. The first speaker was Edward Everett, who gave an impassioned two-hour speech. After Everett, Abraham Lincoln rose and spoke for little more than two minutes. Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address was, in many ways, a summation of why the war was being fought and the meaning of the sacrifices made by the men who fought in the battle. At the end of Lincoln’s speech, Edward Everett, the man who had spoken prior to Lincoln, said, “I wish I could flatter myself that I had come as near to the central idea of the occasion in two hours as you did in two minutes." This product will help bring the speech alive to your students. This product is aligned to excerpts read directly from the speech. Excellent for struggling readers and audio learners. This product breaks down the speech into chunked text for students. After each section, students are asked some simple processing questions that will help them comprehend what they have read. I have also include time stamps so that students can listen to the speech while they follow along. Clipart and Product Clipart Credit: by Dandy Doodles

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

Ever feel like your history lessons need a serious pick-me-up? After watching my teenager's eyes glaze over during one too many timeline activities, I knew I had to create something different! These Weekly History Syllabus Doodle Notes were born late one night at my kitchen table, surrounded by scattered history books and half-finished lesson plans that weren't working for either of us. As a fellow homeschool mom who's navigated the treacherous waters of teaching history to a teenager (who'd rather be doing ANYTHING else), I have poured all my real-world experience into these templates. Gone are the days of dry, boring history planning that puts both of us to sleep! Instead, I have created visual planning sheets that finally clicked for my visually-oriented teen. Now we're mapping out historical connections, documenting primary source readings, and planning research activities in a way that actually sticks! The magic happens when those historical concepts come alive through both organized planning AND creative visual elements. My daughter went from "Do we have to do history today?" to pointing out connections between historical periods on her own—I amnot kidding! These templates have completely transformed how history works in our homeschool, and I cannot wait for them to do the same for yours. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive weekly history planning template with visually engaging design Designated spaces for historical learning objectives, content focus, and instructor information Daily sections for documenting classwork, discussions, quizzes, and attendance Specialized reading assignment sections for historical texts and primary sources Homework planning areas with website research recommendations and writing prompts Visual note-taking spaces that connect historical concepts with creative representation Structured organization that accommodates the unique narrative nature of history instruction Look, I am not going to pretend I'm some super-organized homeschool mom with color-coded bookshelves (my laundry pile would quickly disprove that myth!). But after years of history lessons that felt like pulling teeth, these doodle notes have honestly saved our homeschool history curriculum. Sunday afternoons used to find me stressed and overwhelmed, staring at history books and wondering how to make centuries-old events relevant to my tech-obsessed teen. Now? I actually look forward to mapping out our history week! The combination of chronological organization with visual creativity means concepts stick in a way they never did before. My daughter has gone from glazed-over eyes to making connections between historical periods on her own. No joke—last week she compared political patterns from ancient Rome to something in today's news WITHOUT PROMPTING! Grab these templates today, and in a few weeks, you will be texting your homeschool friends about how your kid suddenly loves history. (And they'll demand to know your secret!)

Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
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.

The Cuban Missile Crisis: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
The Cuban Missile Crisis was a 13-day political and military standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union in October 1962. The crisis was sparked when the United States discovered that the Soviet Union had secretly installed nuclear missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles from the US coastline. The US saw this as a direct threat to their national security. On October 22, 1962, President John F. Kennedy announced the discovery of the missiles and imposed a naval quarantine on Cuba, blocking Soviet ships from delivering more missiles. The Soviet Union responded by stating that the quarantine was an act of aggression and refused to remove the missiles. For the next 13 days, the world was on the brink of nuclear war. The US military was put on high alert, and Kennedy established the Executive Committee of the National Security Council (EXCOMM) to advise him on the crisis. Kennedy and his advisors considered several options, including a military strike on Cuba, a full-scale invasion, and a naval blockade. They also communicated with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev through diplomatic channels to try to find a peaceful solution. On October 28, Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for a US promise not to invade Cuba and to remove US missiles from Turkey. The crisis was over, and nuclear war had been avoided. The Cuban Missile Crisis was a defining moment in the Cold War, demonstrating the danger of nuclear weapons and the need for international diplomacy and cooperation. It also led to improved communication and a "hotline" between the US and the Soviet Union to prevent future crises. 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 give students an overview of Cuban Missile Crisis, the main players in the crisis, and the 13-days where the world stood at the brink of nuclear war. These notes also come complete with a fill-in-the-blank student version. Clipart Credit: Dandy Doodles

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. Excellent for review. Product clipart credit: By PrincePadania and By Clip Guy Graphics

J. Robert Oppenheimer: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: USA, History: World, Grade 6, 7, 8, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers
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 comprehensive 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

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
