Description
The War of 1812 & The Battle of New Orleans
This product contains fascinating informational text that explores the War of 1812 and specifically, the Battle of New Orleans. This product also has excellent maps and pictures to aid in your students’ ability to learn about this formative conflict and battle in World, British, Canadian and US history.
I believe often the history of this time and place gets lost, or barely glossed over, in US History studies. This product is a must in any exploration of the history of the War of 1812 and the Battle of New Orleans.
The product explains the following: the Treaty of Ghent; ironic fact that the treaty was signed before the Battle of New Orleans; the main developments of the war of 1812; the American failures in Canada; American success on Lake Erie; British attack on Washington, D.C and the burning of the White House; successful American defense of Ft. McHenry and Baltimore; writing of the "Star Spangled Banner," British plans for the Gulf Coast; emergence of Andrew Jackson as a leader; Jackson's preparations for the battle; the actual Battle of New Orleans; description of the British assault, why it failed, and the death of Pakenham; effect the battle had on the war; overall importance of the War of 1812
Included are all the documents (Word and pdf and PPt.) you need to print off for hard copy or deliver in an e-learning format. This product would also fit wonderfully into a blended learning plan or a close read lesson.
Great review questions are at the end and of course answer key is included.
