Civil Rights Movement Webquest - Honors and On-Level Versions

Description: Webquest designed to help students through the key events of the Civil Rights Movement. Website used is the same for both levels, but the graphic organizer sheets are different. One is slightly adjusted to be used for on-level students while still addressing the same content, while the other has slightly more rigorous questions/reading skills for an honors level class.

Standard(s) Addressed: Students will analyze how individuals and groups mobilized against inequalities in American society by: 1) Evaluating the tools, methods, and leadership utilized by the African American Civil Rights Movement to challenge unequal access to economic opportunity, public accommodations, and political participation. 2) Evaluating the impact of federal legislation, Supreme Court decisions, Constitutional Amendments, and executive orders on addressing unequal access to economic opportunity, public accommodations, and political participation.
