Description
- In this product, students will analyze a timeline of slavery and segregation in America to understand and compare proportionally how long slavery and segregation have existed versus equality. Students will convert these proportional rates into percentages and make inferences about how the percentages affect history and current events.
- Students will be able to use ratios and proportional thinking to convert real world numbers to percentages. Students will also be able to use the percentages to make observations and inferences about current events and real world implications. CCSS 6.RP.3, CCSS 7.RP.3
- I made this product in hopes that it would inspire myself and other teachers to have more conversations about social justice in our classroom. The percent analysis in this problem should work as a launch pad for a productive conversation about slavery and civil rights in our nation.
