Truman and the Dropping of the Atomic Bomb: Graphic Organizer

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

The Gettysburg Address: Primary Source Analysis

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

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.

Brown v. Board of Education 1954: Case Brief

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. These notes work well as a supplement to class readings! Product clipart credit: by Clip Art Emporium

The Scientific Revolution: Graphic Organizer

The Scientific Revolution: Graphic Organizer
Social Studies, History, History: World, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers

The Scientific Revolution refers to a period of profound scientific advancements and changes in the way people viewed and understood the natural world. It took place roughly between the 16th and 18th centuries, starting with the Copernican Revolution and ending with the Enlightenment. During this period, several significant scientific discoveries and advancements were made, leading to a fundamental shift in scientific thinking. Some key figures associated with the Scientific Revolution include Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Johannes Kepler, Isaac Newton, and Francis Bacon. One of the central developments of the Scientific Revolution was the heliocentric model of the solar system proposed by Copernicus. He argued that the Earth revolves around the Sun, challenging the prevailing geocentric model that placed the Earth at the center of the universe. Galileo's observations with his improved telescope supported Copernicus' heliocentric model and further contributed to the understanding of planetary motion. Galileo also conducted experiments on motion, discovering the principle of inertia and making significant contributions to the field of mechanics. Johannes Kepler formulated three laws of planetary motion, providing mathematical descriptions of how planets move in elliptical orbits around the Sun. His laws helped establish a more accurate understanding of celestial mechanics. Perhaps the most influential figure of the Scientific Revolution was Sir Isaac Newton. His groundbreaking work in physics, laid out in his book "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" (often referred to as "Principia"), presented the laws of motion and the law of universal gravitation. Newton's laws provided a unified framework for understanding the motion of celestial bodies and objects on Earth. The Scientific Revolution also saw advancements in other fields, including anatomy, biology, chemistry, and optics. It led to the development of new experimental methods and the establishment of scientific institutions, such as the Royal Society in England. The impact of the Scientific Revolution extended beyond the scientific realm. It challenged long-held beliefs and traditional authorities, particularly those of the Catholic Church. The new scientific knowledge and methods encouraged critical thinking and the pursuit of empirical evidence, laying the groundwork for the Enlightenment—an intellectual and philosophical movement that emphasized reason, individualism, and progress. Overall, the Scientific Revolution marked a significant turning point in human history, ushering in a new era of scientific inquiry, experimentation, and a more systematic approach to understanding the natural world. It paved the way for subsequent scientific advancements and continues to shape our understanding of the universe today.

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 Great Awakening: Reading and Graphic Organizer

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

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!

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

The Cuban Missile Crisis: Graphic Organizer

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

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!
