Lesson on Friday, November 18, 2016

Aim: Did America fulfill the dreams of immigrants in the late 1800s?

Bell Ringer: Review your designated source on the History Lab: Urbanization

Objectives:
1.     Students will compare the experience of European immigrants in the east to that of Asian immigrants in the west.
2.     Students will examine the importance of social change and reform in the late 19th and early 20th centuries (class system, migration from farms to cities, Social Gospel movement, role of settlement houses and churches in providing services to the poor).

Agenda:
1. Complete "History Lab: Immigration" in groups. Assign one source to each member. Complete your designated source in under 5 min, then each member takes a turn to 1. describe their source, and 2. answer the questions (main idea, and how it answers the essential question.)
3.     Group must agree on a description for main idea and answer to essential question for each source.
4.     Students formulate a thesis independently.

5.     (Students may use their previous History Labs so they are reminded what skill they are lacking).
