Map Activity: Europeans Come to North America
Social Studies, History, History: World, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This mapping activity introduces students to the land claims made by European countries around the 1700s. There are total of 7 questions that students are expected to answer using the map. This is great of review and/or as an introduction to a unit. Ready to print - no prep. The European exploration of the Americas refers to the period of exploration and colonization by various European powers in the Americas, starting in the late 15th century and continuing into the 19th century. This era of exploration had a profound impact on the history, culture, and development of the Americas. Christopher Columbus, an Italian explorer sailing under the Spanish crown, is often credited with initiating the European exploration of the Americas. In 1492, he reached the Caribbean islands, believing he had reached the eastern coast of Asia. Columbus's voyages sparked a wave of exploration by other European powers, primarily Spain and Portugal. The Spanish, led by figures like Hernán Cortés and Francisco Pizarro, explored and conquered vast territories in Central and South America. They established colonies and exploited the region's resources, particularly gold and silver. The Spanish Empire became one of the wealthiest and most powerful in the world. The Portuguese, led by explorers such as Vasco da Gama and Pedro Álvares Cabral, focused their efforts on establishing trading routes to Asia by sailing around the southern tip of Africa. However, they also claimed significant territories in South America, including Brazil. Other European powers, such as England, France, and the Netherlands, also sought to establish colonies and expand their influence in the Americas. English explorers like John Cabot and Sir Walter Raleigh ventured to North America, while French explorers, including Jacques Cartier and Samuel de Champlain, explored and settled parts of present-day Canada. The Dutch established colonies in what is now New York and other areas along the eastern coast of North America. The European exploration of the Americas led to the establishment of permanent colonies, the introduction of European diseases that devastated native populations, and the transatlantic slave trade, which forcibly brought millions of Africans to the Americas to work on plantations and in mines. The colonization and exploitation of the Americas by European powers had far-reaching consequences, including the reshaping of indigenous cultures, the establishment of new political and economic systems, and the eventual independence movements that led to the formation of modern nation-states in the Americas. It's important to note that the European exploration of the Americas was not a single, unified endeavor. Different European powers had different goals, methods, and interactions with indigenous peoples. The history of this period is complex and multifaceted, involving numerous explorers, conquistadors, and colonizers, each contributing to the overall narrative of European exploration and colonization in the Americas.

Thurgood Marshall Introductory Reading
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 6, 7, 8, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Thurgood Marshall was a prominent figure in American history, known for his significant contributions to the civil rights movement and his groundbreaking work as a lawyer and judge. He was born on July 2, 1908, in Baltimore, Maryland, and passed away on January 24, 1993. Marshall attended Howard University School of Law and became involved in civil rights activism early in his career. He was a founding member of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (LDF) and served as its chief counsel for several years. As a lawyer, Marshall played a pivotal role in challenging racial segregation and fighting for equal rights in the United States. One of Marshall's most notable achievements was his successful argument before the Supreme Court in the case of Brown v. Board of Education in 1954. As the lead attorney for the LDF, Marshall argued that racially segregated public schools were unconstitutional and violated the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. The Court ruled in favor of Marshall's argument, declaring that segregation in public education was inherently unequal and therefore unconstitutional, leading to the desegregation of schools across the country. In 1967, Thurgood Marshall made history again when he became the first African American to serve as a Supreme Court Justice. He was nominated by President Lyndon B. Johnson and served on the Supreme Court for 24 years until his retirement in 1991. During his tenure, Marshall consistently advocated for civil rights, social justice, and equality. He often took progressive stances on issues such as affirmative action, voting rights, and criminal justice reform. Marshall's legacy extends beyond his legal accomplishments. He was a staunch defender of individual rights and believed in using the law as a tool for social change. His work paved the way for future civil rights advancements and inspired generations of lawyers and activists to fight for justice and equality. Thurgood Marshall's impact on American society, his commitment to civil rights, and his trailblazing achievements in the legal field make him an influential and revered figure in the history of the United States. This is a simple worksheet with comprehension questions to help students understand the impact and life of Thurgood Marshall. Clipart credit: PrincePadania
