Civil War No. 1 Regents US History Short Essays
This teaching resource prepares students for the updated New York State Regents exam by developing historical document analysis skills. Two sets of primary source documents with accompanying prompts measure students' abilities to understand text, engage it with historical context, and assess reliability.
Set 1 has students describe the historical context around two Civil War documents and identify the relationship between events or ideas. Set 2 has students describe historical context and analyze how audience, purpose, bias, or point of view affects one document's use as a reliable source.
Short essay practice develops skills needed for the Regents short essay task. Assign one set monthly with a debrief to study classmates' work anonymously and develop improvement strategies. This resource mirrors the Regents format with two document pairs and prompts.
